What is an XLSM file?

The XLSM format is a macro-enabled spreadsheet file created by Microsoft Excel 2007 and later versions, utilizing the Office Open XML (OOXML) standard (ISO/IEC 29500). Unlike the standard XLSX format, XLSM files store embedded macros written in Visual Basic for Applications (VBA), allowing for automation and complex scripting within the workbook. The file structure relies on ZIP compression to contain XML documents for data, styles, and macro binary parts (vbaProject.bin), presenting a security risk that often requires user authorization to execute active content.

How to open an XLSM file

XLSM files open natively in Microsoft Excel (2007+) on Windows and macOS, which provides full VBA execution support. For non-Microsoft environments, LibreOffice Calc, OpenOffice Calc, and WPS Office can open these files and view data, though VBA macro execution compatibility varies significantly. Google Sheets can import XLSM data but strips the VBA macros, converting the file to its native format without automation features.

What is an HTML file?

HTML (HyperText Markup Language) is the standard markup language for documents designed to be displayed in a web browser, defined by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) and the WHATWG Living Standard. An HTML file consists of plain text tags that structure content into a Document Object Model (DOM), enabling the embedding of scripts (JavaScript), cascading style sheets (CSS), and multimedia. The format has evolved from SGML-based roots to the current HTML5 specification, which includes semantic elements and APIs for complex web applications.

How to open an HTML file

Operating systems universally support HTML rendering via pre-installed web browsers like Microsoft Edge (Windows), Safari (macOS), or Firefox (Linux). For source code modification, developers utilize specialized editors such as Visual Studio Code, IntelliJ IDEA, or Notepad++. No proprietary software is required, as the format is an open, non-proprietary standard text file.
