D Dave Peterson Apr 26, 2008 #3 I'm guessing that the OP is using xl2007 and wants to know about .xlsb (or ..xls)? http://www.microsoft.com/interop/docs/officebinaryformats.mspx or http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/help/HA100069351033.aspx From what I've read, the .xlsb binary files open a little faster (less for excel to do???). And yep, they can contain macros. I still use personal.xla in xl2007. I haven't resaved it as .xlab (yet).
