Editor's review
This is software that lets you view and work with DBF formatted databases, databases that are generated by the programs like dBase, Clipper, FoxPro, Visual FoxPro etc. The command line option makes things simpler for administrators.
DBF File Viewer is a tool for viewing, editing, and printing DBF-format databases. Thus data generated in dBase, Clipper, FoxPro, Visual FoxPro etc., other DBF formats are easily handled by the program. You are able to add, delete, recall, sort, zap, pack records, view and edit files in DOS or Windows character sets, get detailed database information, export to txt/html/csv/xls/xlsx format, and search in a file. The command line support will be convenient for administrators for routine tasks such as removing duplicates or replacing data in DBF files. the command line commands syntax is simples and batch files could be run. The software also enables connection to ODBC, BDE or additional libraries (.OCX, .DLL). It is supported on all versions of Windows from 95 through XP, Vista, Seven and Server Editions.
Import and export of data is available in several formats. Export of data is possible in any one of XLS, XLSX, CSV, TXT, SQL, HTML file formats. Import formats are Excel, DBF and CSV formats. You get a tabular view in the interface that makes browsing through the data base or selecting a record for manipulation very easy. The operational controls are arranged in a toolbar above the display area. These controls include the file manipulation related group, edit command, viewing options, other program options etc. If you have a lot of work to do with these DBF formatted databases, this could be a very good addition to your toolkit.
