I could just create the relevant C structs and read them using standard C functions, I guess?
My C is a little rusty, but if that's the easiest way to go, no problem.


I'm sure your code would be a nice helper, if you wouldn't mind?

I can include a credit in the About Dialog, but I doubt it'll be run on any machines other than mine :)

Has anyone had any experience of reading dBase .DBF files in a Cocoa
application?

Yes. I didn't use any of Cocoa for the import; I used some pretty
straightforward C++/STL. As you already know, the file format is pretty
simple and there's not much need for fancy library functions to support
reading it. I don't mind giving it away; not much in the way of
documentation, but then what do you want? Point it at a dbf and read records
out of it ;-)
