Microsoft Works Word Processor Document

Extension	.wps
Category	🔵 documents
Programs	🔵 Microsoft Word 🔵 NeoOffice 🔵 OxygenOffice 🔵 Works Converter
Main program	🔵 Microsoft Works Word Processor
Description	🔵 .wps (Microsoft Works Word Processor) The .wps file format is used by Microsoft Works Word Processor, which was a part of Microsoft's discontinued Works suite. WPS files are similar to Microsoft Word documents but have fewer features and were used in a more basic word processing program. Due to the limited adoption of Microsoft Works and the dominance of Microsoft Word in the word processing space, WPS files are less common and may require specific software or converters to open in more modern word processing programs.
Technical details	🔵 The .wps file format, part of the now-discontinued Microsoft Works, was mainly used for word processing. As "Works Word Processor" files, .wps offered basic formatting akin to early Microsoft Word but lacked advanced features. Initially exclusive to Microsoft Works, post-discontinuation, some Microsoft Word versions can open .wps files with limited formatting. With Microsoft Works' decline, .wps files often require conversion to formats like .doc or .docx for better accessibility. Different versions of Microsoft Works had varying .wps formats, impacting compatibility. Less popular than formats like .doc, the .wps format supported basic graphics and tables, had smaller file sizes, and is now a legacy format needing specific conversion tools. The discontinuation of Microsoft Works has reduced .wps usage, shifting focus to more standard document formats. Understanding .wps is mainly relevant for accessing or converting older documents.

Microsoft Excel Binary File Format

Extension	.xls
Category	🔵 documents
Programs	🔵 Microsoft Office 🔵 LibreOffice 🔵 Kingsoft Office 🔵 Google Docs
Main program	🔵 Microsoft Office
Description	🔵 .xls The .xls format is the default file format for spreadsheets created in Microsoft Excel, particularly in versions before Excel 007. This binary file format can store data in cells organized in rows and columns, and it supports formulas, charts, graphs, and various formatting features to manipulate and visualize dataThe .xls format was commonly used in business, finance, and any field requiring data analysis and presentation but has since been largely replaced by the more advanced .xlsx format.
Technical details	🔵 The `.xls` format, primarily for Microsoft Excel versions before 2007, stores spreadsheet elements like worksheets, formulas, and macros. As a proprietary binary format by Microsoft, its undocumented internal structure made third-party software compatibility challenging. This format includes binary records encapsulating data, formatting, and embedded objects, supporting multiple worksheets, various functions, and inter-sheet referencing. `.xls` files may contain Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) macros, enabling automation and complex calculations. It's supported not just in Excel but also in applications like OpenOffice Calc, with options to convert between `.xls` and other formats like `.xlsx`. Despite security concerns with macros, `.xls` is still used, mainly for its compatibility with older Excel versions and legacy systems, although the newer `.xlsx` format, introduced in Office 2007 with XML and ZIP technologies, offers improved efficiency and security.
