Excel 2007+ (.xlsx)
Excel 2007+ refers to the file format used by Microsoft Excel versions from 2007 onwards, typically having the .xlsx extension. This format is part of the Office Open XML (OOXML) standard and represents a significant change from the older binary format used in previous versions Excel. Excel files are a compressed Zip package which reduces the file sizes and makes them easier to manage and share. Excel support 1,048,576 rows and 16,384 columns per sheet, more complex formulas, and advanced features like conditional formatting, richer graphics, and improved security options.
Tab Separated Values
A Tab Separated Values (TSV) file is a simple text format for storing data in a tabular structure. Each row in the table is represented by a line of text in the file. Within each row, columns of data are separated by tabs. This format is useful for moving data between programs or systems that handle tabular data, such as spreadsheets and databases. TSV files are easy to read and write by both humans and machines. They are especially useful when handling data that contains special characters or commas since the tab character is less likely to appear in field data than commas.
