DBF Desktop

DBF Desktop is a small Windows application whose purpose is to help you open and edit DBF files in a straightforward way.

This is a portable program. You can open the utility by simply running the executable file because there’s no setup included in the process. You can get rid of it by deleting the files that you have downloaded from the Internet.

It does not store entries in your Windows registry and leave other setup files in your system. It actually saves the configuration files on the target computer. You may store it on USB flash drives and run it without administrative privileges.

DBF Desktop reveals a simple layout that allows you to set up the dedicated parameters with ease. A help manual is not included in the package but you can tweak the settings on your own because they look intuitive.

DBF files can be imported in the working environment using the built-in browse button (the drag-and-drop support is not implemented).

The application is able to display the contents of any DBF file (excluding proprietary non-standard content like Visual FoxPro extensions).

What’s more, you are allowed to change the record content and add new records with ease, view and update DBT/FPT memo file entries, as well as generate and alter multiple CDX, MDX, NDX, and NTX index files.

Other important configuration settings worth being mentioned enable you to create new dBase III/IV and FoxPro files, including memo and index files, perform searches in order to identify a record based on field content, and filter table data to check out only specific records.

All things considered, DBF Desktop comes bundled with several handy features for helping you quickly access DBF information or change data, and can be configured by rookies and professionals alike.
