    Viewer for DBF files

    Does anyone know a nice viewer/editor for DBF files. I have been using Gnumeric but I only realized now it only goes to 65536 rows so most of the data is missing.

    Im really only looking for something so I can scan down the rows find all those starting with some number and copy these rows into a spread sheet.

    Im sure there is a simple solution but I don't know it. Any chance anyone else does?

    Not really something I've needed, but after a quick search found 'dbview'. Its in the repos. You could also try OO and see if that works for you.
