An Excel file is a spreadsheet created in Microsoft Excel, saved today with the .xlsx extension. It organises data into rows and columns across one or more worksheets and stores far more than the numbers themselves: formulas, cell formatting, charts, pivot tables, conditional rules, and named ranges all live in the same file. Modern Excel workbooks use the open Office Open XML standard, which is why so many other programs can read them.
Microsoft Excel is the natural choice, and Excel for the web opens workbooks in a browser with a Microsoft account.
Without Excel, use Google Sheets, LibreOffice Calc, or Apple Numbers — all of them recalculate formulas. Advanced features such as pivot tables and macros may behave differently outside Excel. To circulate figures that recipients should read but not edit, convert the workbook with our Excel to PDF tool.

Extensible Markup Language (XML) is a text-based format for storing structured data in a way that both people and software can read. Data is wrapped in tags that you define yourself, so an XML file describes not just values but what each value means. XML underpins a huge amount of everyday computing: Office documents, RSS feeds, SVG graphics, sitemaps, and countless configuration files are all XML underneath.
Any web browser will display an XML file as a collapsible tree, which is the fastest way to inspect one. Simply drag the file into Chrome, Firefox, or Edge.
For editing, use a text editor with syntax highlighting such as Notepad++ or Visual Studio Code, both of which validate the structure and reformat messy files. Microsoft Excel can import XML as a table when the file holds tabular data. Never rename an XML to another extension expecting it to work — the tags define its meaning. You can also convert the file with our XML to PDF tool.
