Description🔵 .xls The .xls format is the default file format for spreadsheets created in Microsoft Excel, particularly in versions before Excel 007. This binary file format can store data in cells organized in rows and columns, and it supports formulas, charts, graphs, and various formatting features to manipulate and visualize dataThe .xls format was commonly used in business, finance, and any field requiring data analysis and presentation but has since been largely replaced by the more advanced .xlsx format.
Technical details🔵 The `.xls` format, primarily for Microsoft Excel versions before 2007, stores spreadsheet elements like worksheets, formulas, and macros. As a proprietary binary format by Microsoft, its undocumented internal structure made third-party software compatibility challenging. This format includes binary records encapsulating data, formatting, and embedded objects, supporting multiple worksheets, various functions, and inter-sheet referencing. `.xls` files may contain Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) macros, enabling automation and complex calculations. It's supported not just in Excel but also in applications like OpenOffice Calc, with options to convert between `.xls` and other formats like `.xlsx`. Despite security concerns with macros, `.xls` is still used, mainly for its compatibility with older Excel versions and legacy systems, although the newer `.xlsx` format, introduced in Office 2007 with XML and ZIP technologies, offers improved efficiency and security.

Extension.xlt
Category🔵 documents
Description🔵 XLT is a file extension used by Microsoft Excel to denote template files created with the software. Like other Microsoft Excel files, XLT files are spreadsheet files that can contain data, formulas, charts, and other elements commonly used in financial or accounting analysis, data management, and project management.
Technical details🔵 XLT files are similar to XLS files, which are regular Excel files that can be opened and edited directly. The main difference between the two is that XLT files are intended to be used as templates, meaning that they can be customized and saved as XLS files, which can then be edited and manipulated directly. When an XLT file is opened in Excel, a new workbook is created based on the template. This workbook contains all the formulas and formatting specified in the template, as well as any pre-defined data or charts. Once the new workbook is created, the user can modify or add new data as needed, save the file as an XLS file, and use it for analysis or reporting purposes.
