ETT to XLTM Converter

An ETT file is a spreadsheet template format utilized by the WPS Office Spreadsheets application. Similar to Microsoft's XLT or XLTX formats, it contains pre-defined layout structures, formatting styles, formulas, and macros intended to serve as a blueprint for generating multiple .et spreadsheet files with consistent styling. The format allows users to standardize corporate reporting or invoice structures without altering the original master data.

Native interaction with ETT files requires the WPS Office suite. Opening the file typically instantiates a new, unsaved .et spreadsheet based on the template's parameters rather than editing the template itself. Users wishing to edit the template structure directly must explicitly choose the 'Open' command within WPS Spreadsheets rather than double-clicking the file.

The XLTM file is a macro-enabled template format introduced with Microsoft Office 2007, based on the Office Open XML (OOXML) architecture. It combines the templating functionality of XLTX with the ability to store Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) macros (contained in a vbaProject.bin part within the ZIP container). This format allows organizations to deploy standardized spreadsheets that include automation scripts, while preventing users from modifying the base template file.

Microsoft Excel is the primary application for creating and executing XLTM files with full VBA support. While LibreOffice Calc and OpenOffice can open XLTM templates, they may not execute proprietary VBA macros correctly. Mobile versions of Office and web-based viewers typically allow viewing the template structure but disable macro execution for security reasons.
