Import XLSX files to DBF base.
This dialog window imports data from an Excel file. With "Import data into current (opened) database file" option, the DBFView will insert records from xlsx file you selected into current dbf file. In this case the number of fields and field types should be the same as opened dbase file.
If "Import data into another DBF file" is checked, the program will create a new dbf file based on selected Excel xlsx file.
When default locale of your computer is something different from than English, DBFView returns incorrect date value. You are to change your default locale to US to avoid this problem or change the format of date cells to the default type (03/25/2008).
When you export .xlsx files you should take into consideration some limitations:
1. Rules of the columns names.
- Columns names should be written down one after another (beginning with the cell A1).
- Empty names of the columns are not supported (columns laying to the left are only imported).
- Columns names longer than 8 symbols are truncated up to 8 symbols.
2. Rules of the columns type definition.
The columns type is defined according to the type of the data entered into the second row, i.e. if the integer value is written in the second row that column will be of the integer type.

We were interested because our users needed something quick and easy to view dbf files and we did not want to use FoxPro. We had another utility that works on Windows 95 and NT but would not work on Windows 98. We tried using Excel but it would only read up to 65,536 records and some of the files they look at are larger than that. I had looked at another dbfviewer but it did not have all the functionality that yours has.

I am doing support work in the field on a software system written with Visual FoxPro. Only the runtime is delivered to the end user. I have both Microsoft Access and Microsoft FoxPro on my system but when I am trouble shooting a site, I connect into their Lan with my laptop. It is time consuming to use these other programs to look at or modify .DBF files on the users system. To do this, I have to set up linkages from the IDE's for each file I want to look at. When I am done, I need to tear these linkages back down because they will no longer exist once I unplug my laptop from their network. I wanted a program that would allow me to quickly scan through a number of .DBF files and if needed make changes with a minimum of overhead work. I searched download.com for programs that would serve this purpose. Your program seemed to be a good fit. I downloaded it and a couple of others, worked with each and when I decided I would continue using yours, registered it.

First off I would like to tell you what a great product DBFView is. I'm trying to convert a large dbase file into SQL Server and the dbf file is giving me a great deal of problems, and DBFView has allowed me to go in and find the records with problems and fix them.
