I have a 2006.tax file from last year but I don't have Turbotax 2006.

Is there away to turn that tax file into a PDF file or a hard copy
without the program?

I doubt it. Did you file for 2006? You can request your tax info from
the IRS:
http://www.irs.gov/newsroom/article/0,,id=105370,00.html

Alternately you can:
A) ask around, a friend may have 2006 on his machine and let you print
your return
B) you can go to Intuit and buy a prior year's TurboTax
C) you can go to ebay and payless than (B)

I doubt it; it is a birary DATA file that Turbo Tax needs to be able to read
to create anything meaningful out of it.

So saying that, I understand you can probably buy a used copy of TT off of
eBay (perfectly legal I think if you receive the original media?) and get at
the data that way.

When you get it, be sure to 'print' a complete version for your records in
the .pdf format and save it next to your .tax file to avoid this problem in
the future as well as printing a hardcopy as well .
