SDF extension (Standard Database Format) is used for database files. SDF files store data is in structured manner, and the values are saved in fixed-lenght fields. Easy data exchange SDF files are typically used for exchanging data between various database software.
MDB is a database file generated and used by Microsoft Access program – it is a native format of this software, based on engine of the Access Jet database. MDB files contain data regarding databases – structure and requests of a database, functions, records and other information.
After converting the file to the new format, you will be able to use other programs to support it. Keep in mind, however, that the SDF file after converting to MDB may differ slightly from the original. The most important information should be kept, but if you want the file after conversion from SDF to MDB to be the same, you have to do this carefully and choose the proper application from the list below.
There is no guarantee, of course, that the conversion will come up to all your expectations, but it will certainly help you. If, after all, the effect of converting SDF to MDB does not meet your expectations, you can simply try to find on the Internet a different version of your file in SDF format, properly converted to a MDB file by someone else. If this fails, use the information provided in the further part of the website.
If after converting the file SDF the desired result was not achieved, you can try to change the format of SDF file to other than MDB. On our website you will find more information on the following conversion options
Unfortunately, if after performing the two previously described steps (trying to find your SDF file converted by someone else, and the attempt to convert it to MDB on your own) you still have a problem with your file, then there are only a few solutions left. You can once again try to find and install an application that can open the SDF file in its original format (without conversion to MDB file). Such a solution will be difficult to implement, but it certainly will give the best result.
