- Description
- A DBF (Database File) is a file format that originated with the dBASE database management system, which was one of the first widely used database systems in the 1980s. The format has since been adopted and supported by other database and software applications for storing structured data in a tabular form. A DBF file typically contains a header, which defines the structure of the database, including information about fields (columns) such as name, type, and size, followed by records (rows).
- OpenDocument Spreadsheet Template (OTS) files are template files used for creating spreadsheet documents using the OpenDocument format. OTS files contain a pre-defined set of data and styles that can be used to quickly create a spreadsheet, such as a price list or accounting ledger. The OTS format is supported by many spreadsheet programs, including OpenOffice, LibreOffice, and Microsoft Office.
