XLS The .xls filename extension is a native binary file format associated with the closed source spreadsheet application Microsoft Office Excel. First introduced in 1987 with the release of Excel 2.x, the file format acts as the container for storing spreadsheet data such as work sheets, charts, and macros. Prior to Microsoft Office Excel 2007, the xls binary format was the default standard for the Microsoft Office Excel until the later adoption of the Open Document standard .xlsx. Documents to be saved in the .xls format are saved as Excel 97, 2003 documents.
