The qf file extension was used by Nokia (Ovi) Maps, Nokia navigation software for Windows Phone and Windows 10 Mobile devices.
A qf file contains information about the installed version of Nokia (Ovi) Maps and related application settings. It is an internal support file rather than a user-created map or document.
Nokia (Ovi) Maps was replaced by the Nokia HERE Maps app, which was acquired by BMW, Volkswagen and Mercedes. The qf format is obsolete.
A qf file is intended to be read by the compatible Nokia (Ovi) Maps application on Windows Phone or Windows 10 Mobile. The application normally handles the file automatically.
There is no general-purpose viewer or editor for this internal version and settings file. Do not edit it manually, because changes may prevent the application from reading it correctly.
A qf file contains application version and settings data, so it has no useful document conversion or export format.

FORTRAN is a general-purpose procedural programming language developed at IBM in the 1950s and widely used for numerical and scientific computing. QUEL is a database query language associated with the Ingres relational database system.
The file contains FORTRAN code with embedded QUEL database queries. A QUEL preprocessor processes those statements so that the resulting source can be compiled as a FORTRAN program.
This is a legacy source-code format associated with older Ingres environments. It is normally handled on the operating systems and development systems where the corresponding Ingres tools and FORTRAN compiler are available.
A .qf file is a text-based source file, so its contents can be viewed with a plain-text editor. To build or run the program, use the compatible Ingres QUEL preprocessor followed by a FORTRAN compiler; a modern general-purpose application may not understand the embedded QUEL statements.
The source can be edited as text. Converting it to another database interface generally requires replacing the QUEL statements and adapting the surrounding FORTRAN code, after which the revised source can be saved in an appropriate source format.

The qf file extension is also used by Qompose (pronounced "compose"), a HTML templating language.
It was created to make it easier to build a site with essentially static files but put most or all of the "look" of the site in only one place.
The qf file contains HTML template.
Use Qompose to work with *.qf files.
Probably can be exported to other formats.

The qf file extension is associated with Wimba Diploma, question-authoring software developed by Wimba for Microsoft Windows and other supported platforms. Diploma is used to create and manage question banks.
A qf file contains bank data created or used by Wimba Diploma. It is application-specific data intended to be handled as part of a Diploma question bank.
Open a qf file from within Wimba Diploma on a platform supported by the application. The file may need to be imported or opened through Diploma's question-bank tools rather than by double-clicking it.
Because the file is application-specific bank data, other programs may not display its contents correctly.
The qf file is not normally suitable for conversion with general file-conversion software. To transfer its contents, open it in Wimba Diploma and use the application's question-bank export or import functions, if available.
