Hi!

I went from 2003 to 2010.
Just wondering how I can save in db3 format.

Any idea?

I know in Office 2007, people would export to Access and then save as a db3. If you don't have Access, as far as I know, you'd need to open the file with excel 2003 and then save as.

Poonoodle ,
Thanks for reply.
So no direct save as db3 seems to be possible...
Sad that besides easy menustructure MS also took this worthfull option away.

I don't like the ribbon either, and I read that Windows 8 has is throughout the OS.

db3 is an old format. Why do you need to do this? Maybe there's another option.

JPaulus,

You ara right.
dB3 is old format but very reliable. Far better than e.g. Acces.
I am quit experienced with VFP can do all I need to solve every problem.
So absolutely no need to head to other apps'.
