Corel Paradox was a relational database management system sold by Corel Corporation. A PDX file stores information used by the Paradox database software.
Corel Paradox was also included in some editions of the Corel WordPerfect Office suite for Microsoft Windows. The file is therefore normally used as part of a database created or managed by Paradox rather than as a standalone document.
The format is associated with legacy Windows database software.
Open the PDX file with Corel Paradox on Microsoft Windows. It can also be opened through an edition of Corel WordPerfect Office that includes Paradox.
Open the file from within Paradox, or use the operating system's Open With option to select the appropriate program. A PDX file may depend on other files from the same Paradox database.
Open the PDX file in Corel Paradox and use the program's export or save options to move its data into a format supported by the destination software.
If the file is part of a larger Paradox database, convert the database components together where possible.

ProCite was bibliographic software originally developed by Personal Bibliographic Software and later distributed by Thomson Reuters. It uses PDX as part of one of its default database formats.
A PDX file contains index information for a ProCite database rather than serving as a document containing the complete reference collection. It is used together with the other files that make up the same ProCite database.
ProCite is legacy Microsoft Windows software, and the PDX format is primarily encountered in older ProCite databases. The index is not normally useful as a standalone file.
Open the database from ProCite on Microsoft Windows, rather than opening the PDX file as a standalone document. Keep the PDX file with the other files from the same ProCite database.
A PDX file is an index and cannot be meaningfully converted on its own. To move the references to another program, open the complete database in ProCite and use its export function.
Export the bibliographic records to a format supported by the destination reference manager. The index file itself does not contain a complete, independently convertible copy of the database.
