DataFlex is a database and development environment. On Linux and Unix systems, its dfclean utility can create a BAD file when it finds duplicate or invalid records during database maintenance.
The file stores information about the detected problem for use by dfclean. It is a supporting repair file rather than a normal DataFlex database or user document. The utility does not delete these files after completing its work, so they may remain alongside the associated database.
A BAD file is intended to be used by the DataFlex dfclean utility, not opened as a document in a general-purpose application. On Linux or Unix, use the DataFlex database maintenance tools on the associated database and keep the BAD file available to them.
A BAD file is diagnostic information for DataFlex database repair and has no useful standalone conversion format. Use dfclean to address the duplicate or invalid records instead of attempting to export or convert the BAD file.
