Microsoft Excel
XLSX is the modern Microsoft Excel spreadsheet format, introduced with Office 2007 as part of the Office Open XML (OOXML) standard. Like DOCX, an XLSX file is a ZIP archive containing XML files. XLSX supports up to 1,048,576 rows and 16,384 columns per sheet, formulas (including array formulas and LAMBDA functions), charts, pivot tables, conditional formatting, data validation, sparklines, named ranges, and VBA macros (as .xlsm). The format supports multiple worksheets, cell styles and themes, embedded images, and extensive number formatting. XLSX is the standard format for business data analysis, financial modeling, reporting, and data management. It's natively supported by Microsoft Excel, Google Sheets, LibreOffice Calc, and Apple Numbers.
