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).
It is a macro-enabled spreadsheet file developed using Microsoft Excel and it holds worksheets arranged in rows and columns. The macros are created using Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) language.
