What is a CSDB file

CSDB files mostly belong to CSPro. CSDB files are database files that use an SQLite structure to store organized data.
They are primarily used as follows:
  • As a CSPro SQLite database that holds survey and census data in a relational format.
  • As a compressed SQLite database file, which in some cases is associated with ConceptDraw MINDMAP documents.
  • The files support SQL queries and efficient data management.
    To open and view a CSDB file, use the relevant software tool:
  • If the file is from CSPro, use CSPro or any SQLite viewer.
  • If the file is connected to ConceptDraw, use the ConceptDraw MINDMAP software.
  • FilExt.com note: For more details on CSPro usage, visit the CSPro Users page.

    How to open CSDB files

    You need a suitable software like CSPro to open a CSDB file.

If you cannot open your CSDB file correctly, try to right-click or long-press the file. Then click "Open with" and choose an application. You can also display a CSDB file directly in the browser:. Just drag the file onto this browser window and drop it.
