I have an XYZ.DBF file that I've imported into Excel 2007 but it doesn't parse properly on the import. The entire record goes into Column A of the Excel 2007 worksheet, Sheet 1. Columns B and up don't have anything in them. I think a record
key is in the first several characters of each record. To do the import I select the file from Windows Explorer>right-click to Open and then select Excel. When I've tried double-clicking the file I am prompted with the select the program to
use. FWIW, the actual extension (DBF) IS capitalized!
In the past I've imported *.dbf very easily. I'm perplexed on this import. I don't think it's a DBF v2. I was told the file structure was from a Visual FoxPro custom application. What
I'm wanting to do is to import and then map the fields for importing into a new application that is more versatile.
Any suggestions appreciated!
Thanks!
