DBF Converter
$29.95 - HiBase Group

dBase, FoxPro and their Windows clones, Delphi applications and more all rely on
DBF files. Modern business realities make high demands for data interchange and compatibility.
Even an outstanding database program is useless if you cannot use its data in other
applications. Many programs claim their support for DBF files. However, the practice
shows that this support in most cases is rather limited. It isn't well suited for
everyday use.

HiBase Group is a company that specializes in advanced DBF files manipulations. It
is a producer of well-known DBF tools that utilize low-level data access and thus,
reach the maximum possible level of flexibility. DBF Converter is a DBF file conversion
utility that you can rely on in your everyday DBF conversion needs. Need to publish
your data on the web? Need to export your data files into an SQL database? No need
to abandon your good old applications based on DBF files and spend thousands on a
new system. DBF Converter is a cost-effective solution that can solve your problems
for less than $25.

DBF Converter is a versatile yet easy-to-use conversion program. It has a familiar
Wizard-like interface but can also be used as a command-line utility for batch file
processing. DBF Converter supports all the modern data interchange formats, such
as XML, CSV, TXT, HTML, RTF, PRG and others. You can even convert your DBF table
into a SQL script that can be imported into any SQL database.

In addition to simple conversions, DBF Converter allows you manipulate data by selecting
only specific columns and applying filters. Unlike simplified filtering rules that
are normally available in other DBF applications, DBF Converter dynamically builds
a sample database record form. The ability to put advanced masks and rules into any
field of the sample record is one of the most valuable DBF Converter features.

Thumbs.db Viewer
$15 - Janusware Ltd.

Thumbs.db Viewer was written to give the computer user tools to reconstruct Thumbs.db, ehthumbs.db and thumbcache_*.db (Vista) database records.
Thumbs.db is a hidden system file generated automatically by Windows when you view the contents of a folder in "Thumbnail" or "Filmstrip" view. Thumbs.db contains a copy of each of the tiny preview images generated for image files in that folder so that they load up quickly the next time you browse that folder.
Thumbs.db is actually a database of the miniature images that exist in the folder from which they were initiated. The early versions of Thumbs.db files as they appeared in Windows ME/W2k contained not only the thumbnail image of the parent file, but also the filename, drive letter, and path to that image. Later versions, Windows XP/2003, store the image and its filename but not the path. In Windows Vista the Thumbs.db file has been replaced by several "thumbcache_*.db" files which are now located within the user`s profile.
Deleting the Thumbs.db file in Windows has no affect on your operating system: the Thumbs.db file is recreated in each folder each time you view thumbnails.
Even though the images have been deleted in the folder they could still exist in the Thumbs.db file along with their modification dates.
Thumbs.db Viewer allows displaying Thumbs.db database records as well as the miniature graphics generated in each (with metadata: original file name and timestamp); collects all the Thumbs.db files in and below the specified folder; searches the Recycle Bin (INFO2 files) for deleted Thumbs.db files; extracts and views all or selected pictures as HTML representations; view with external image viewer any of the original file corresponding to stored in an Thumbs.db thumbnail`s metadata (if it exists); view the image in full size or as the best fit for program`s window; rotate images right or left by 90 degrees; using a heuristic algorithm, the program can search swap and hibernation files for a JPG graphic.
