DATABASE FILE - is one that is stored on a server and it is in the format that the database needs to read it. It is stored in the database catalog......
Export the MS Works database file in a comma-delimited format, save the file, then import the file into MS Excel.
Database file is one that is stored on a server and it is in the format that the database needs to read it. It is also stored in the database catalog. A flat file is one that is dumped from a database to import or export into another database or program. A flat file is fields of data separated by delimiters, which keep the fields separated for export/import.
Usually, that is using a "load" file to import data into a database. That can be a flat, delimited file or other formats. The type of format used depends on the database. My database has data upload batch jobs scheduled daily.
A good way is to export from a database is to save as CSV format (or some sort of comma-delimited text format), then open Excel and import the file into Excel.
Unless you want to read the code that powers the database programme, you don't want to convert it to a document. You may, however, want to convert a database file to a document. Since the database file contains not only the data you want to retrieve, but embedded codes, you may be able to save the database file into a .TXT format. Then you can open it using Windows Notepad -- if you're working on a Windows operating system. This will give you the contents of the database data file.
You probably do not, since BTD is a proprietary database format (Power To-Do List data file) and XLS is a spreadsheet format. You might be able to get some information from Five O'Clock software (see related links), the publishers of Power To-Do List. They might have some suggestions for exporting or converting your file.
A file is nothing but a term used by database administrators and programmers where data is stored in a specific format. In short, a file is where in all the records or sets of records are stored on a computer.
