<p>Here is a blog post on using excel as a data source in OS BIRT: <a data-ipb='nomediaparse' href='http://birtworld.blogspot.com/2011/05/birt-using-xls-as-data-source.html'>http://birtworld.blogspot.com/2011/05/birt-using-xls-as-data-source.html</a></p&gt;
<p> </p>
<p>Here is a post I was able to find about reading a BDF file in Java: <a data-ipb='nomediaparse' href='http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8064937/what-is-the-best-opensource-dbf-driver-for-java'>http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8064937/what-is-the-best-opensource-dbf-driver-for-java</a></p&gt;

<p>You should be able to use the apply the same type of steps from the blogs post on excel to using the java code for dbf. </p>
