I work for a large international company and we utilise a number of applications provided by third party sources. I am looking to extract some data from log files that we need for reporting functions.
The information is logged in a .dbf file but unfortunately we have not been provided with software to read the files. I have tried downloading some freeware software to read these files but unfortunately the crucial information is missing when I open the files. I checked the files using notepad and I can clearly see the information is contained within the file that I am looking for.
In the past myself and a colleague have created self executable visual basic scripts for this purpose but this took a considerable amount of time to set up and my colleague has now left the company and he was the feel expert. I was wondering if anyone knew of a way for me to convert this file into a .csv file as ultimately this is our goal.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
