Excel file extensions can be of various types. Here we will cover the most common file type:
XLS – Excel file extension
This extension is the most common and default type in the spreadsheet generated by Microsoft office. Prior to Excel 2007, the file extension was XLS. This extension refers to a file which contains all type of information including data, formats, graphics etc. The operating system recognizes the file type with the help of extension and operates this file using the Excel application.
The XLS is the default file type for Excel version 2.0 to Excel 2003.
XLSX – Excel file extension
This extension is used by the spreadsheet files generated with the Excel version 2007 onwards. For an Excel file, the current default file extension is XLSX.
