      @Lycan-Thrope Did you try it? What did you find? I’ve never seen a dbf7 table, so can’t comment. If it’s a “table” it may not even be a dbf file. Just sayin’

        It took you a year to come back and ask this?
        The answer is no.
        I read the documentation of the product a year ago, ascertained that it is basically a DOS emulator run program and the description, time of publishing and hard data capacities and reference to table types means that no, it is not capable of DBF 7 handling. If it was, it would say so.

          @Lycan-Thrope Hey, I’m a busy guy. Anyway, DBF7 is not a DBF file, it’s a table, possibly an obscure remnant of something started by dBase LLC. SharkBase is useful because it can read all known DBF types plus CSV files, with billions of records, etc etc, which is all I was trying to say before being side-tracked.

            Yeah…okay, whatever. It’s clear now, you don’t know what you’re talking about and pushing a product that isn’t what you say it is.

            Your statement is false, period. It can’t read all known DBF types, as you state because it can’t read level 7 DBF files, which has been the latest official dBASE file type for the past approx 28 years almost since it’s been written to work in Windows, so I’ll consider your postings to be uninformed spam. Have a nice day.
