That interesting statement obviously suggests a question: which not-new file format(s) does Lotus Approach use?

I've read that the database files produced by Lotus Approach are named {something}.dbf, which suggests that they might be in dBase/xBase format, like Foxbase/Foxpro, Clipper, and Alpha-4. Is that a correct guess? NCdave (talk) 15:58, 24 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just modified one external link on IBM Lotus Approach. Please take a moment to review my edit. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit this simple FaQ for additional information. I made the following changes:

• Added archive https://web.archive.org/web/20051224203945/http://jabrown.customer.netspace.net.au/approach/ to http://jabrown.customer.netspace.net.au/approach/

When you have finished reviewing my changes, you may follow the instructions on the template below to fix any issues with the URLs.

for customized data bases. It does not deserve to be a stub that soon will be voted off. Approach enabled users to create their own dbs to meet their particular needs, whether a library or a wine cellar, riding stables or accountant. Resizing etc was easy. I will never understand why IBM hived it off because of a supposed "incompatibility". You can still download it. Not certain about w10 but up to w7 install, then go to properties and change compatibility to run in XP mode.74.12.127.245 (talk) 21:30, 28 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
