File extension wdb is most likely best known for its use in Microsoft Works, a now discontinued office suite produced by Microsoft, which was offered as smaller, less expensive, and with fewer features alternative to the Microsoft Office suite. Its core functionality includes a word processor, a spreadsheet and a database.
A .wdb file contains database created in Microsoft Works. It is the default database format of the program.
MIME type used by wdb database files:
application/vnd.ms-works
application/vnd.ms-works-db
application/x-msworks-db
zz-application/zz-winassoc-wdb
It seems that .wdb files can only be opened in Microsoft Works and the support in other database programs is somewhat limited.
Microsoft Works databases may be exported to common formats like CSV which then can be imported to most modern database managers / spreadsheets editors.
