How to Use

Filtering your Dbf Files

Filter

DBFView lets you filter dbf files according to specific criteria. Any data not matching the specified criteria is hidden from view. Filtered data, however, can be easily viewed again by removing the filter. Filtering is especially useful in large tables when you need to work only with records meeting your precise criteria.

When Table filtering is enabled, some DBFView commands will produce different results. These can include:

• Cell formatting affects only visible Table cells
• When printing the Table, only visible cells will be printed
• The Sort command will affect visible cells

Running Table Filters

• Click FILTER button on the toolbar or "Tools -> Filter" in the Main menu.
• Additional filter row appears.
  
  
• In the column you want to filter type the name of a particular assignment (i.e., the condition) you want filtered. When you want to perform more complex filtering type filter criterias in several columns.
  
• Press Enter
  All rows fitting the criteria of the selected column/columns are displayed.
• To remove the filter from your Table click the Filter button in filter row...

We have installed Access 2000, and the export data from access to dBase destructs actually all file structures (thank you, guys from MS!) of the DBase files in a manner that dBase doesn't recognize them as dBase files... I have to support an old Clipper/dBase based program. I was looking for a documentation tool for dBase because we still use a Clipper compiled programm that uses dBase files. Then I found Your program and thought i could see the structures of the files: I can! Hey fine! I also can see the contents of the files even if the Access derived files have a mistake in the second byte (at least) of the exported files. And I can modify the contents of the fields. Even better!

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.

We develop application software using any kind of DBF format file. The DBF files generated (FoxPro DBFCDX in windows format) are different from the equivalent FoxPro generated in DOS format: as a result of that the utilities I use to maintain the DBF files (mainly DBU of Clipper) are enable to manage all formats. I should have at least 3 versions of the same utility. For this matter I started a research on the web to find a more rational tool. I've downloaded several DBF managers very good products but they don't solve the compatibility problem. Only DBFView has the main feature I'm searching for : it recognizes the DBF format! And then the graphical interface of DBFView is very user friendly, agreeable to see, and the exe is very small.
