| Corel Paradox Table Format | Corel Corporation | Database Files |
The PD file extension is associated with Corel Paradox, a relational database management system developed by Corel Corporation. Corel Paradox is part of the popular WordPerfect Office Suite. Its primary purpose is to store data in multiple tables and relate them together. It facilitates information retrieval and cataloguing within multiple applications. It automates data manipulation and helps users to analyse and report on large volumes of data.
The PD file is a Corel Paradox table file, which stores related information taken from other databases or spreadsheet files, and acts as a tool for reporting, querying, and sorting in the Corel application. It organises datasets into smaller subsets or organised chunks of related information for easy search and recovery. This extension uses indexes, sorting rules, and other forms for advanced archiving, sharing and processing data.
Additional File Types
Other Corel Paradox related file types are: .DB, .VAL, .PX, XPO, XCS. These file extensions are used to store one or more tables that contain data or query results of each other.
Data Sharing and Management
The PD file type enables users to share, process, audit, and manage large volumes of complex data across various platforms. It enables Corel Paradox users to manipulate complex datasets such as foreign language keys, data validation rules, calculated fields, table structure definitions, form designs, and indices. In addition to this, the PD provide users with a robust set of metrics including sorting performance, order operations, sorting on multiple fields, substring search capabilities, powerful filtering capabilities.
Programs for WINDOWS system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .PD) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the .PD extension.
When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.
Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the .PD file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the .PD extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the .PD extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .PD file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .PD file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.
In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the .PD file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .PD file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .PD file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
