Microsoft Works Database (.wdb)

The WDB file extension stands for Microsoft Works Database. It is used for database files created by Microsoft Works, an office suite that was popular in the 1990s. These files are similar to Microsoft Access's MDB files but have more limitations and are not natively supported by modern Microsoft Office versions. WDB files store data in a proprietary format, making them less efficient compared to MDB files. Due to the discontinuation of Microsoft Works, opening WDB files now requires alternative methods, such as using older versions of Microsoft Word, converting them to Excel format, or using third-party tools like CodeAlchemists Works Database Converter.

Symbolic Link File (.slk)

An SLK file, standing for Symbolic Link File, is a specialized file type used primarily in spreadsheet applications to facilitate data exchange. Originally introduced by Microsoft for its Multiplan spreadsheet program in the 1980s, the SLK format was later adopted by other spreadsheet software due to its simplicity and efficiency. These files are composed of ASCII text and include symbolic references to cells, allowing for easy parsing and manipulation of spreadsheet data. The primary use of SLK files is to enable seamless data transfer between different spreadsheet programs, ensuring compatibility and preserving the integrity of the data during exchange.
