The 123 file extension is associated with Lotus 1-2-3, a spreadsheet program developed by Lotus Development Corporation and later acquired by IBM. Introduced in 1983, Lotus 1-2-3 was known for its three main capabilities: spreadsheets, charting, and basic database operations. The 123 format, introduced in 1997, replaced earlier formats like WK4 and was used to store data in rows and columns, supporting various functions and calculations. Although IBM discontinued Lotus 1-2-3 in 2013, the 123 file format remains a legacy format.
The Data Interchange Format (DIF) file extension is a standardized format used primarily for importing and exporting spreadsheet data between different software applications. Originating in the 1980s, DIF was developed by Software Arts for their pioneering spreadsheet program, VisiCalc. Despite its age, DIF remains relevant due to its simplicity and ease of implementation, facilitating interoperability among various data processing tools. Its structured, plain text nature makes it particularly suitable for transferring tabular data while maintaining data integrity across different platforms.
