Convert WKS to XLSM

The WKS file extension represents Microsoft Works Spreadsheet, a part of the Microsoft Works suite. First introduced in 1987, Works was designed as a streamlined, affordable alternative to Microsoft Office. The WKS format specifically handled spreadsheet data, facilitating tasks such as budgeting, data analysis, and inventory management. Despite its simplicity, it enabled users to perform essential functions like data sorting, basic calculations, and charting. Over time, Microsoft phased out Works in favor of the more advanced Office suite, yet WKS files remain a legacy format, occasionally encountered in archival data and older systems.
The XLSM file extension stands for Microsoft Excel Macro-Enabled Spreadsheet. It allows users to automate tasks via macros, enhancing productivity in complex data manipulation and repetitive operations. Introduced with Excel 2007 as part of the Office Open XML format, XLSM files support the embedding of VBA (Visual Basic for Applications) macros within spreadsheets. This format offers advanced functionalities for financial analysis, data modeling, and automation within the Microsoft Excel environment, optimizing efficiency for professional use.
