The XLSX file extension is associated with files saved as Microsoft Excel (2007/2010), one of the most popular and powerful tools you can use to create and format spreadsheets, graphs and much more. The XLSX files are used in Microsoft Excel (2007/2010) for Workbooks, spreadsheet, and document files. They serve the same purpose as the corresponding XLS Microsoft Excel 97 to 2003 Workbook files, but use the new file extension. The file format is based on the Open XML data format. ZIP compression is used on XLSX files, resulting in smaller file sizes. LEADTOOLS has an XLSX filter to support the loading of XLSX (2007/2010).
