Can Access 2007 convert to and from .dbf format files?

Yes, just highlight the table, and then click on the "External Data" tab.

Then in the Export Group...click on the "more" drop down...you see dbase in
that list...

You likely best keep the file names 8 characters or less without any spaces
to avoid issue.

So, don't use:

fax book.dbf

but use

faxbook.dbf for file names. (so 8 or less chars before the extension .dbf
and without spaces.

You likely also best put the files in a directory that has no spaces for the
names also....

eg:

c:\myDdfFiles\
