You're here because you have a file that has a file extension ending in .ndx. Files with the file extension .ndx can only be launched by certain applications. It's possible that .ndx files are data files rather than documents or media, which means they're not meant to be viewed at all.
what is a .ndx file?
The NDX file extension is known as dBASE Index File which was developed by Databased Intelligence Inc. It defines the structure and fields of a database which consists of a header followed by a B-tree, root, branch, and leaf nodes or block. The nodes size is fixed at 512 bytes. The header contains block numbers, length of search key, logical flag and several fields. Root, branch and leaf blocks can be in any order. The files could be jointly searched and the joining factors were stored in an index file. It is used primarily by dBASE, but may be recognized by other database programs. dBASE IV supports NDX as well as MDX index files compatible with dBASE 111.ndx are files for single indexes while MDX are for multiple indexes. Files in NDX format can be opened with dataBased Intelligence dBASE, Microsoft FoxPro, NewsStand Reader in Microsoft Windows platforms. A simple index uses a single field name for the key expression while a complex index uses a dBase expression.
how to open a .ndx file?
Launch a .ndx file, or any other file on your PC, by double-clicking it. If your file associations are set up correctly, the application that's meant to open your .ndx file will open it. It's possible you may need to download or purchase the correct application. It's also possible that you have the correct application on your PC, but .ndx files aren't yet associated with it. In this case, when you try to open a .ndx file, you can tell Windows which application is the correct one for that file. From then on, opening a .ndx file will open the correct application.

dataBased Intelligence dBase
dataBased Intelligent dBased is a software that manages databases for minicomputers. It is a query system and a forms engine as well as a programming language. The format of dBase files is .dbf. This software was originally design for Control/Program Monitor and was later ported to the Apple II and IBM PC which is under the Disk Operating System. After several years, many companies made their own products which were Foxpro and Clipper. And these new program were much better that dBase. dBase used to make and application for window such as Web applications. An IDE with and Navigator as well as a Command Window would be the feature of dBase, with a preprocessor and an interpreter machine which is virtual. dBase intelligence is also responsible for various graphical user interface such as Form Designer, Report Designer, Menu Designer ,SQl Query designer , a Project that manages upon deploying simplified dBase application, Container, and these objects under dBase can be subclasses by simply adding new properties at the runtime.
The NTX file has two associations. One is the encrypted text format of the New Testament for theWord Bible Software called theWord Encrypted New Testament Text Module that aids in the distribution of protected New Testament digital copies. The other one is the Clipper Index File developed by Clipper that is used to define Clipper database structure and its fields. It has similarity to NDX file, but it can perform longer search for key expressions and data storage formatted as ASCII. Clipper is a programming language that creates software originally operating on DOS for business programs. It supports several language extensions and database formats like DBF, DBFCDX and DBTNTX. Programs that can open NTX files are Dbf/Ntx Reader, dataBased Intelligence dBASE and EZIndex that runs on Windows. EZIndex is a system that keeps a data dictionary of indexes for files you use for your application. It supports NTX files [Clipper] and CDX files [FoxPro]. It allows you to search an index file through the search option.
Pervasive PSQL is an application developed by Pervasive Software wherein it is called a database management system that’s ACID-compliant. It is software mainly used to embed applications wherein different types of applications whether they are packaged software applications use this software. In cases where there is a file-based architecture that enables data partitioning, Pervasive PSQL is optimized for the deployment of software as a service. With this software, the applications have the ability to store data in the form of tables or store them in a non-schema fashion. Operating systems like Windows, , Linux and MAC can run the Pervasive PSQL software and this comes with different editions like the 32-bit and 64-bit editions. This software also comes with additional features such as support for IPv4 and ipV6, page and record compression, agents for data backup, data replication, data auditing, row-level locking, data and over-the-wire encryption, compatibility with cluster environments as well as it supports English and Japanese languages.
Be careful not to rename the extension on .ndx files, or any other files. This will not change the file type. Only special conversion software can change a file from one file type to another.
what is a file extension?
A file extension is the set of three or four characters at the end of a filename; in this case, .ndx. File extensions tell you what type of file it is, and tell Windows what programs can open it. Windows often associates a default program to each file extension, so that when you double-click the file, the program launches automatically. When that program is no longer on your PC, you can sometimes get an error when you try to open the associated file.
