The XLM file extension stands for "Excel Macro", a format used in early versions of Microsoft Excel to store macro instructions. Introduced with Excel 4.0 in the early 1990s, XLM files enabled automation of repetitive tasks by recording sequences of actions performed within the spreadsheet. They were pivotal in the evolution of Excel's macro capabilities, which later transitioned to VBA (Visual Basic for Applications). While XLM is largely obsolete now, understanding its role is crucial for grasping the history of Excel's automation features.
The OTS (OpenDocument Spreadsheet Template) file extension, maintained by the Organization for the Advancement of Structured Information Standards (OASIS), is used to create spreadsheet templates with predefined styles and formatting in Apache OpenOffice Calc. Introduced in 2005, OTS files facilitate the creation of consistent and reusable templates for tasks like budget planning and invoicing. These files are XML-based, compressed as ZIP archives, and compatible with various open-source spreadsheet applications.
