[Tutor] reading dBase IV files (.DBF)

[Lloyd Kvam]

There is some code in the Vaults of Parnassus
http://www.kw.igs.net/~jimbag/

I found the DataHandler clumsy to use.  The method setData
in class DBFCursor (DBFcursor.py) handles the DBF file structure
to determine the fields in the file and the file layout.

I suspect that you can build from that to get what you really need.
