Hi Jason,

Yes, the .dbf files are in the same directory as the .shp and .shx ones. I
even tried to open these .dbf files with a text editor and I can see all
the information regarding the feature members inside.

@Knut: I made a search on Google but couldn't find this app. Can you send
us the link as asked by Adebusoye ?

Best regards,
Kader
