XLT

A XLT file is a template file associated with Microsoft Excel, a widely used spreadsheet program part of the Microsoft Office suite. The XLT file format is used for storing templates that define the layout, formatting, and structure of Excel worksheets. Templates provide a starting point for creating new workbooks with consistent styles and settings.

What is a XLT File?

A XLT file is essentially a saved template in Microsoft Excel. It contains predefined settings such as fonts, colors, styles, and formulas. When you open a XLT file, it serves as a basis for creating a new workbook, allowing users to start with a consistent design for their spreadsheets.

How to Open XLT Files:

Opening XLT files is a specific process, as these files are intended to be used as templates for creating new workbooks. Here’s how you can work with XLT files:

1. Create a New Workbook:

• The primary way to use XLT files is to create a new workbook based on the template. In Microsoft Excel:

 Go to “File” > “New.” Choose “Personal” or “Custom” (depending on your Excel version) to access your templates. Select the XLT template you want to use, and Excel will create a new workbook based on that template.

2. Modify and Save:

• Once you have opened a new workbook based on the XLT template, you can modify it as needed and save it as a regular XLSX file. Any changes made to the new workbook do not affect the original template.

Various Apps that Use XLT Files:

XLT files are primarily used with Microsoft Excel for creating new workbooks based on predefined templates. Other spreadsheet applications may not use the XLT format specifically, but they often support importing Excel templates in other formats.
