What is a .TAG file?

A .TAG file is a type of data file that is used by a program called DataFlex, as well as something called the SQL Connectivity Kit. Imagine it like a list that has the names of different sections (fields) that are found in a special table within another file, which ends in .DAT and is also used by DataFlex. This list in the .TAG file is organized so that each name is on its own line, making it easy to read and understand.

To open a .TAG file, you would use programs like Data Access DataFlex or the SQL Connectivity Kit. These are specific tools designed to work with DataFlex data files, including the .TAG file.

The .TAG file is not alone; it's part of a group of files that DataFlex uses to manage data. Other files in this group include .FD, .K, and .VLD files. Each .DAT file, which holds the main data, will have a corresponding .TAG file and an .FD file, and all these files will share the same name. This makes it easier to keep track of which files belong together.

DataFlex itself is a powerful tool that helps people create applications for desktops, mobile devices, and the web. It's quite versatile and is used across many different fields like government services, transportation, health care, retail stores, farming, legal services, financial services, media, manufacturing, religious organizations, and public utilities. This wide use is because DataFlex allows developers to build applications on a single platform that can cater to various needs, making it a popular choice for creating business applications.
