I'm not sure if these programs can handle dbf IV files and can do what you want: "WinDBF32 is a database program that can handle dBase, FoxPro and HiPer-Six files. Allows the use of native dBase (xBase) field types: character, numeric, logical, date, memo and blob." http://www.buchenwald.de/software/index-e.html "DBF Viewer Plus is a portable DBF table viewer plus some additional features for editing and searching. DBF Viewer has the following features: * Add, Edit, Deleting and Updating records. * Pack Table. * Zap Table (Empty). * New Table (Create a DBF File) * Set Table Type" * Much more http://www.alexnolan.net/software/dbf.htm Both programs appear to be abandonware.I kept them in my archive, just in case...

Tried all the suggestions -- nothing works. I'm trying to use the data in Softmaker Office and it seems to require dBaseIV format files for its database. All of these programs open the dBase files, but produce a file not readable by Softmaker. Thanks to all. I'll continue searching. |
