GDBTABLE File Complications

Troubles Opening GDBTABLE Files

ESRI ArcGIS for Desktop is Not Installed

You attempt to load your GDBTABLE file and get an error such as "%%os%% Can't Open The GDBTABLE File Extension". Generally, this is experienced in %%os%% because ESRI ArcGIS for Desktop isn't installed on your PC. Your operating system cannot associate your GDBTABLE with ESRI ArcGIS for Desktop, so double-clicking the file won't work.

Tip: If you have another software that you know opens GDBTABLE files, you can select it by hitting the "Show Apps" button.

Wrong Version of ESRI ArcGIS for Desktop is Installed

In some cases, you might have a newer (or older) version of a Geodatabase Table File file that is unsupported by your installed application version. Download the latest ESRI ArcGIS for Desktop version from the ESRI (Environmental Systems Research Institute) website to ensure you have the correct one installed. The primary cause of this problem is that your Geodatabase Table File file was created by a different (newer) version of ESRI ArcGIS for Desktop than what's installed.

Tip: Right-clicking on your GDBTABLE, then clicking "Properties" (Windows) or "Get Info" (Mac), can provide clues about your file version.

Regardless, most of the GDBTABLE file opening problems relate to not having the right version of ESRI ArcGIS for Desktop installed.
