Are there any tape experts out there?

I have just received half a dozen large boxes of assorted backup-up tapes. These date back over the last 10 years and are written in a selection of formats on 20 or 30 different computers.

Does anyone know of any software that I can use to recover the data from all these tapes? If I can I want to avoid loading a whole selection of different software which is specific to each particular set of tapes.

Another question as time went on and data capacities went up does anyone know if the latest version of a particular drive will read earlier versions of its particular tape cassette?

Thanks in advance
