View DBF File

DBF Commander opens each DBF file in a child MDI window. This feature allows you to keep open as many DBF files as you want. This may be useful, for example, for comparing the data of several DBF files, or for comparing field names, field types, record count, etc.
Use the scroll bars to move in the DBF file's grid. The status bar contains some useful information about the DBF file: record count, field count, current field type, DBF format, and codepage. For more details, please refer to this topic: DBF Viewer and Editor.

The Main Menu's View submenu contains display-relative operations. Use them to view a DBF in the way you need.
