GenStat is a statistical analysis system developed by VSN International. The glk file is created and used by GenStat's ODBC export functionality.
The file contains information used by GenStat ODBC when exporting data through an ODBC connection. It is a GenStat-specific supporting file rather than a general-purpose data interchange format.
The format is associated with the Microsoft Windows version of GenStat and is intended to be used within that application.
Open the glk file with GenStat for Microsoft Windows. It is an ODBC export link file, so it should be opened or used through GenStat's ODBC-related commands rather than treated as a standalone document.
A glk file is a GenStat ODBC export link, not a general-purpose data file, so it normally has no useful direct conversion to another format.
To obtain data in another format, use GenStat to access the associated ODBC source and export the data to a format supported by GenStat or by the target application.
