Kexi Databases

Many applications such as OpenOffice.org, LibreOffice or Microsoft Excel create files which are called documents. Kexi creates files too, but we refer to them as Kexi database files, or simple database files here.

In addition to storing your databases in database files, Kexi can also use databases on database servers, which is why we refer to them as database files, and not simply as databases.

Information

Kexi database files usually have the extension .kexi
