What is XLSM file format?

The XLSM file format is an extension of the XLSX file format used for Microsoft Excel workbooks. Similar to XLSX, it is based on the Open XML file format and is associated with the Excel application. The “M” in XLSM stands for “macro-enabled”, indicating that it supports the inclusion of macros.

XLSM files store spreadsheet data, including worksheets, formulas, charts, and other elements commonly found in Excel workbooks. Additionally, XLSM files allow the embedding of VBA (Visual Basic for Applications) macros within the workbook. Macros are scripts written in VBA that automate tasks, perform calculations, and interact with the spreadsheet data.

By including macros in XLSM files, users can create customized functions, automate repetitive tasks, and enhance the functionality of their Excel workbooks. Macros can be written to manipulate data, generate reports, perform complex calculations, or interact with other applications.

When opening an XLSM file, Excel prompts the user to enable or disable macros due to security concerns. Enabling macros allows the embedded VBA code to execute, while disabling macros prevents potential security risks associated with malicious code.

XLSM files provide advanced features and customization options for Excel users who require automation beyond the capabilities of the standard XLSX format. They are commonly used in business environments, financial modeling, data analysis, and other scenarios where complex calculations and automation are necessary.

What is XLSB file format?

The XLSB file format is a binary file format used for Microsoft Excel workbooks. Unlike the XLSX and XLSM file formats, which are based on the Open XML format, XLSB is a binary format that stores data in a binary structure. This binary structure allows for faster file processing and improved performance compared to the XML-based formats.

XLSB files contain spreadsheet data, including worksheets, formulas, charts, and other elements commonly found in Excel workbooks. The binary format optimizes storage and calculation efficiency, making it well-suited for large datasets and complex calculations. It also provides better data integrity and recovery capabilities, as the binary structure reduces the risk of file corruption.

Due to its binary nature, XLSB files are not easily readable or editable by humans. They are primarily intended for use by Excel and other applications that can read and process the binary format. However, Excel provides full compatibility and support for opening, editing, and saving XLSB files.

The advantages of using XLSB files include faster file operations, reduced file size compared to XML-based formats, and improved performance in terms of opening, saving, and recalculating complex workbooks. XLSB files are particularly useful for workbooks that involve large amounts of data or complex formulas.
