Call to undefined function dbase_open() error

Question

I'm trying to work my dbf file to get to open using dbase_open and I'm encountering an error (Call to undefined function dbase_open() error)

I've already uncommented the extension=php_gmp.dll in php.ini. I've tried to downloading the package http://pecl.php.net/package/dbase/5.1.0/windows according to this forum Installing dBase extension in XAMPP and I'm still having no luck with working on it....

Php version: 5.3
Text Editor: Netbeans

Please help me with this? :(

include 'config.php';
 $tbl = "CC";

// Path to dbase file
    $db_path = "C:\xampp\htdocs\DbftoSQL\something.DBF";

    // Open dbase file
    $dbh = dbase_open($db_path, 0)
    or die("Error! Could not open dbase database file '$db_path'.");

What directory is the `php_gmp.dll` file located in? – mseifert May 24 '17 at 04:08 — mseifert, May 24 '17 at 04:08
