What is a dbf file?
Dbf files contain file headers which describe the structure of the data in the file. A program that reads the file does not require prior knowledge of the data structure. Although there are more sophisticated database formats the .dbf file format, is still widely used in many applications needing a simple format to store structured data. There is a need for a compact dbf viewer and dbf editor that will cope with the rich functionality of these well-established dBase and XBase dbf file formats by offering rapid and reliable on-the-fly access to the data.
