Understanding XLSM and XLSX file formats
XLSM and XLSX are both file formats used by Microsoft Excel. XLSM files are Excel workbooks that contain macros, which are automated scripts written in VBA (Visual Basic for Applications) to perform tasks. On the other hand, XLSX files are standard Excel workbooks that do not support macros. Converting an XLSM file to XLSX will remove any macros present in the file.

To convert an XLSM file to XLSX, you can use Microsoft Excel itself or a reliable online converter. Here’s how you can do it using Excel:
- Open the XLSM file in Microsoft Excel.
- Click on File → Save As.
- Select the location where you want to save the file.
- In the Save as type dropdown menu, choose Excel Workbook (*.xlsx).
- Click Save to complete the conversion.
