File Extension FRO

File type: dBASE IV compiled report, FormFlow file

About the FRO file type:

If Windows cannot find the appropriate program associated with .FRO files, then your registry may have errors. Check your Windows registry for errors (includes file association errors).

The FRO file extension is associated with two applications, the dBASE and FormFlow applications. For the dBASE application, the FRO file extension works as a compiled report. dBASE is the first well-known and popular DBMS or database management system used for different microcomputers. It even became the number one best-selling application title for so many years. Many companies even produced different versions and variations of dBASE in many languages like FoxPro, Arago, dbFast, Force, dbXL, Clipper, Quicksilver, and Xbase++. However, dBASE lost its reign in the software market when Microsoft Windows was introduced. Meanwhile, the FRO file extension functions for dBASE IV as a compilation of different reports that can be saved in a certain database file and can also be shared with a network of computers.
