C/C++ language-specific groups seem to have mostly evaporated in the past decade or so as other languages have become more popular in general. Most of the sites I used to hang out on are no longer functioning. http://www.cprogramming.com/ is still running, and is a good starting point. Last I heard the #C channel on freenode IRC was still useable, but I can't check that directly at the moment. StackOverflow is decent when you have reasonably specific questions, but it can be a bit of effort to wade through the voluminous content to find what you want.
For your specific project, there are some domain-specific communities that might offer pointers, suggestions, and code examples: https://harbour.github.io/ An implementation of the Clipper system which compiles xBase code and supports multiple backends including dbf. http://www.clicketyclick.dk/databases/xbase/format/index.html The dbf file format documentation. https://sourceforge.net/projects/dbase/ An existing (very small, possibly abandoned) dbf file library written in C with some C++ wrappers. https://sourceforge.net/projects/xdb/ Another (definitely abandoned) xBase library in C++ Hopefully those help.
