DataFlex Data Set file

File type category:
Various data file

Date updated: September 24, 2026

DataFlex Data Set Objects, also called Data Sets or DS objects, encapsulate the operations used to access a DataFlex data file. They provide the application-facing interface for working with the data file and its records.

A DSO is not the data file itself. It is part of the DataFlex application structure, allowing interaction with the associated data file to take place through a defined object rather than through direct file handling.

The format is associated with the Linux and Unix editions of DataFlex and is normally encountered as part of a DataFlex application.

How to open dso file?

Open a DSO file with the compatible DataFlex development environment on Linux or Unix. DataFlex normally uses the file as part of an application rather than as a standalone document.

A general-purpose text or data editor may display the file contents in some installations, but it will not provide the DataFlex object behavior or safely interpret the associated data.

How to convert dso file?

There is no general-purpose conversion from a DataFlex Data Set file to another file format. A DSO defines how a DataFlex application accesses its data, so it is not normally converted independently.

When migration is required, a DataFlex application can be used to read the associated data and export it to a format supported by the target system. The Data Set object may then need to be recreated in that system.
