Is this an arbitrary schema? Or is it exactly known at compile time? For a fixed schema, I would start off with something like:
public partial class MainAppViewModel : ObservableObject
{
[ObservableProperty] private StringDatabaseModel? _sdbModel;
[ObservableProperty] private string? _id;
[ObservableProperty] private string? _text;
[ObservableProperty] private string? _offset;

[RelayCommand]
public async Task LoadFileAsync(string filename)
{
using (OpenFileDialog ofd = new OpenFileDialog())
{
ofd.Filter = "String Database File (*.sdb)|*.sdb";
ofd.RestoreDirectory = true;

if (ofd.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.OK)
{
// Clear the search textbox
SearchTermText.Clear(); // Probably create a new property and expose a binding here instead

currentLoadedFile = ofd.FileName;
SdbModel = await StringDatabase.ReadStringAsync(currentLoadedFile);

UpdateDataGrid(); // Use bindings instead

// Update the status information for the user to see.
UpdateStatus(); // Use bindings or messaging instead
}
}
}
}
public partial class MainAppViewModel : ObservableObject
{
[ObservableProperty] private StringDatabaseModel? _sdbModel;
[ObservableProperty] private string? _id;
[ObservableProperty] private string? _text;
[ObservableProperty] private string? _offset;

[RelayCommand]
public async Task LoadFileAsync(string filename)
{
using (OpenFileDialog ofd = new OpenFileDialog())
{
ofd.Filter = "String Database File (*.sdb)|*.sdb";
ofd.RestoreDirectory = true;

if (ofd.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.OK)
{
// Clear the search textbox
SearchTermText.Clear(); // Probably create a new property and expose a binding here instead

currentLoadedFile = ofd.FileName;
SdbModel = await StringDatabase.ReadStringAsync(currentLoadedFile);

UpdateDataGrid(); // Use bindings instead

// Update the status information for the user to see.
UpdateStatus(); // Use bindings or messaging instead
}
}
}
}
<Button Command="{Binding LoadFileAsyncCommand}" /> The DB stuff is more complex. If it's arbitrary schema, then you need to use DataTable as part of your DataGrid. If it's a static schema, then as long as your StringDatabaseModel is well-designed, you can bind rows/columns easily in XAML.
