 &nbsp;Unfortunately I don't think there may be any Unix utilities. &nbsp;However, you can do it on a PC without requiring DBase. &nbsp;Install an MS Office product like Excel, and make sure you include the DBase driver (do a custom install, or re-run setup). &nbsp;Then, you can open DBase files in Excel and export from there.<br />

Unix is a multitasking, multi-user computer operating system originally developed in 1969 at Bell Labs. Today, it is a modern OS with many commercial flavors and licensees, including FreeBSD, Hewlett-Packard’s UX, IBM AIX and Apple Mac OS-X. Apart from its command-line interface, most UNIX variations support the standardized X Window System for GUIs, with the exception of the Mac OS, which uses a proprietary system.
