I am assuming you are talking about Progression and not ES.  You should never post without making this clear.

All the users and passwords are in the screens database, they are not in the data_xx databases.  You will also need the PWE and msllockdb databases.

You had all these SQL databases out there and no one was backing them up?  You are kidding right?

There is no recovery if you did not back up these datanases.  You'll need to reinstall Macola to create all these databases, and the user names, passwords, modified screens, modified searched and shortcuts are gone forever.  

You need to reinstall Macola anyway as the databases themselves are not enough.  The Macola install puts tons of files on the local C:\drive of the Macola server as well as writing to the registry, etc.
