"dbase" as in the old dBase database stuff or "dbase" as in coding for and using 
(SQL) databases?

IIRC and unless something has changed that i'm not aware of (quite easy), the 
dbase interface code is only really for reading that data... today's databases 
are all SQL databases which offers a lot more capabilities and is really where 
you should look... if you have an existing dbase database, you might consider to 
convert it from that format to SQL and store the information in a modern database...
