The dta files were produced on a different date so they could be from any source, they could be data files in either binary or ascii format

https://desktop.arcgis.com/en/arcmap/latest/manage-data/raster-and-images/supported-raster-dataset-f... is the list of raster file formats, so I can't see it.

Our library lists ones we use GIS Formats | MacOdrum Library

but dta? and not dat?  If you can open it up in a text editor, then it may be data you can join to the shapefile.  I would ask the people where you got it from, since you didn't create it, they may have the necessary metadata to help

you don't even need the codepage file... you don't need to open it, you don't even have to look at it, it won't show you anything that you can't already see
