A .docm extension file is a Microsoft Word macro-enabled file; this is a document file that is created using either the Microsoft Word 2007 or 2010 version. The .docm file format is very versatile as it can also be used with the previous versions of Microsoft Word as well as with other word processing applications. A DOCM format file can be opened in any version of Word or any Open Office Application.
In an effort to create an open document standard, Microsoft in collaboration with ISO/IEC and Ecma, developed the Office Open XML standard in 2006. One of the filename extensions supported in this specification is the .docx extension, a text document filename extension. The .docx was introduced in Microsoft Office Word 2007 and has been supported ever since in later iterations. It has become the default filename extension for all text documents produced using Microsoft Office Word. Given the open source nature of the XML specification, more alternative document processing applications support read and write capabilities on documents saved with the .docx filename extension. This is in comparison to the .doc filename extension which is a proprietary asset owned by Microsoft.

A .docm extension file is similar to a .docx extension file in terms of using XML architecture combined with ZIP compression. The compression feature enables storage of files in a small size which frees up space on the system and also makes it easy to transfer the files. The only difference between a .docm extension file and a .docx extension file is that it consists of macros as well as VBA scripting.
The .docx filename extension is specified in the open standard ISO/IEC 29500-1:2012. A free compatibility update allows older versions of Microsoft Office Word such as Office 2003 to open .docx documents.
