Lotus 1-2-3 Spreadsheet (wks) is a file type used for storing spreadsheet documents created with the Lotus 1-2-3 software. It is a proprietary format developed by IBM, and was the predominant spreadsheet software during the 1980s and early 1990s. The files typically contain data organized in rows and columns, as well as formulas and calculations.
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).
