🔸 Description	XLSM is the file extension that is assigned to spreadsheets created by Microsoft Excel 2007 and newer. They are saved using the Open XML standard. Just like an older version of the Excel spreadsheet, XLSM files can contain tables and worksheets. On top, XLSM files are macro-enabled. They can contain embedded macros that use VBA.	The database management software dBASE used the DBF extension to save its standard database files. Due to the file format's popularity, dBASE is not the only database program that supports DBF files. Other "xBASE" applications support the file format as well. This popularity is based on the easy comprehend the structure and the fact that DBF was one of the earliest files of its type adapted by the database community.
🔸 Technical details	As stated above, XLSM files are macro-enabled. This distinguishes the format from XLSX files that Microsoft Excel also creates. Thus, for Excel to execute the macros embedded in the file, the spreadsheet has to be saved in the XSLM format rather than as an XLSX file. Predecessors of Microsoft Excel 2007 are only able to open XLSM files if they support Open XML components.	The contents of a DBF file comprise multiple sets of data that are organized and stored in arrays. As a file format, DBF has been introduced in dBASE II. It has been used in the proceeding versions of dBASE III, III+, and IV. DBF files were one of the first database files with a header that allows programs that do not natively know the data structure in a specific file to read DBF files regardless. Thus, they can be opened in Microsoft Excel, OpenOffice Calc, and many other programs.
