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.
