depending on your definition -
- Foxpro (classic app) is a dbase database system, but like dbase itself
sucks
- 4D, will import dbf tables (excluding memo fields) creating a 4D table
and importing all data.

there might be others - but these are the ones I am aware of

Codebase by Sequiter software is a development tool that can work with
existing .dbf files.

Depends what you want to do.

Personal OOFILE is a dBase-compatible engine.

Be careful testing large negative numbers if importing dbf into 4D -
there was a bug at one point where they did some stupid text conversion
of 10 characters and so a maximum negative number lost the last digit.

This was about 12 years ago but lots of 4D looks as though it's stil the
same database engine.

My copy of FileMaker Pro (version 6) claims to be able open DBF
files, but I don't have any so I can't personally test this.
