| Description | 🔵 The WKS file format is an outdated file format for spreadsheets that was used by Lotus 1-2-3 software. It was first introduced in 1982 and was widely used during the 1980s and early 1990s before being replaced by more advanced Lotus 1-2-3 file formats such as .123. |
| Technical details | 🔵 WKS files are binary files that contain spreadsheet data, including text, numbers, formulas, and formatting. They have a file header that contains information about the file's format and settings, followed by a series of records that describe the contents of each cell in the spreadsheet. The file format uses a proprietary binary format and is not widely supported by modern spreadsheet applications. Each record in a WKS file contains information about a single cell in the spreadsheet, including its row and column location, data type, and value. The data types supported by the WKS file format include text, numbers, dates, and formulas. The format also supports basic formatting options such as font size, bold and italic styles, and cell borders. |

| Description | 🔵 Dbase, the data management software, employs the DBF extension for the storage of its standard database files. However, the use of DBF files is not exclusive to dbase; they are also supported by a variety of other "xBASE" software. The DBF format gained popularity due to its straightforward structure and early acceptance by the database community. |
| Technical details | 🔵 In terms of technical details, a DBF file houses multiple sets of data, stored and organized in arrays. It was initially utilized in dBASE II as a file format, and has since been incorporated in subsequent versions, namely dBASE III, III+, and IV. The DBF file is amongst the first database file formats to include a header. This header enables programs unfamiliar with the data structure to read the DBF file. Additionally, it can be utilized in Microsoft Excel, OpenOffice Calc, along with a few other programs. |
