XLT file format

| Description | XLT is a file extension commonly used by Microsoft Excel to indicate template files that have been created within the software. Similar to other Microsoft Excel files, XLT files are essentially spreadsheet files that can include data, formulas, charts, and other elements typically utilized in financial or accounting analysis, data management, and project management. |
| Technical details | XLT files are similar to XLS files, which are standard Excel files that can be opened and edited directly. The main difference between the two is that XLT files are meant to serve as templates, allowing for customization and saving as XLS files for direct editing and manipulation. When an XLT file is opened in Excel, a new workbook is created based on the template. This workbook includes all the formulas and formatting specified in the template, along with any pre-defined data or charts. After the new workbook is created, the user can make changes or add new data as needed, save the file as an XLS file, and use it for analysis or reporting purposes.
