Is there any free DBF file converter? [closed]

StackOverflow https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1256953

Question

I have only found trial versions of these converters. Does anyone know a free one? Any of the following target formats will do:

CSV, MDB, SQL, XLS

Was it helpful?

Solution

Microsoft Excel can open DBF files and save it on many formats

OTHER TIPS

There's Exportizer (http://www.vlsoftware.net/exportizer/index.html) which also comes with a $$$$ "Pro" version, and DBF Viewer Plus (http://www.alexnolan.net/software/dbf.htm) by Alex Nolan.

Both are freeware, both should allow you to export to at least CSV (or more).

I am able to open and convert .dbf files with LibreOffice 3.4.4, and export to a variety of formats.

Very simply converter between dbf and csv. You don't need any database engine.

Very simple, but worked fine for me

I wrote an article some years ago, about converting dbf's into datasets (xml readable by DataSet.ReadXml's function), however, it can be slow on big dbf's ,you can try it free though.

Article.

For XLS or CSV, use OpenOffice.org.
