What is CAB file format?

CAB (or Cabinet) is a common file format used to compress and archive files, commonly used in Microsoft Windows. CAB files are created using the MakeCab command-line tool that is included in Windows and also supported by other compressed file programs. CAB files contain one or more compressed and/or encrypted files in the cabinet format. This format uses embedded file pointers that can be securely transported without being extracted, making them a popular choice for software publishers and developers who need to deliver files in a self-contained package. CAB files can also be distributed via a server, or downloaded from the Internet and then installed. CAB files are ideal for storing and transferring large files, as they can easily be compressed to reduce the file size. The files also remain secure due to their internal file pointers, as they cannot be opened or accessed without the proper software. In addition, CAB files are great for a software publisher who needs to deliver large files quickly and efficiently.

What is DOCM file format?

The DOCM file format serves as a specialized variant of Microsoft Word documents, tailored specifically for creating and saving documents that contain macros within the Word application. Unlike regular DOC files that are intended for basic documents, DOCM files cater to documents incorporating macros.

Macros, composed of commands and scripts written in Visual Basic for Applications (VBA), empower users to execute more intricate automated tasks and functions. They prove particularly valuable in streamlining processes and automating repetitive activities, such as generating charts and formatting documents.

By saving a document as a DOCM file, users ensure that the macros they have created are included in the file and accessible when opened by others. Additionally, DOCM files provide an added layer of user protection by disabling all macros when the document is opened by someone else. This safeguard shields users from potentially malicious macros that could compromise the security and stability of their computer systems.

Furthermore, DOCM files retain compatibility with various versions of Microsoft Word, assuring users that macros will function correctly regardless of the recipient’s Word version. This compatibility facilitates seamless sharing and collaboration on documents containing macros.
