    Xlsx to DBF

    In Excel 2007, they dropped the support for saving files as .dbf.

    I want to take a file that's larger than .xls will support, so I need it in .xlsx format, and then I want to convert it to .dbf format.

    Does anyone know of a tool that can convert .xlsx to .dbf?

    Thanks.

    This was the only program I could find that suited my needs:

    I'm not sold on the product, so if anyone knows of another product than please inform me.

    Have you tried it the other way around - open up Access and import the file from Excel?

    Works for me!

    Can Access save in .dbf format?

    Yes, there is a "save as" filter to dbf in Access.
