The DPQ file extension is associated with Clarion, a programming language and integrated development environment from SoftVelocity.
A DPQ file is used as source information within a Clarion development project rather than as a standalone document format.
Clarion runs on Microsoft Windows. DPQ files are therefore primarily used within Windows-based Clarion development projects.
Open a DPQ file with Clarion on Microsoft Windows. The file is normally opened from the Clarion project or development environment that uses it.
If Clarion is unavailable, a text editor may show readable contents when the file is stored as plain text, but it may not interpret or build the source correctly.
There is no standard standalone converter for the DPQ file format. It is used as Clarion project source information, so conversion to another programming language generally requires opening it in Clarion and manually rewriting the source.
