[SOLVED] Format EXL2K - Two Questions.

Using FOCUS for z/OS, we've just upgraded from 7.1.1 to 7.6.4.

We are now beginning to use FORMAT EXL2K.

Question 1:

What is the industry term, for the type of language that FORMAT EXL2K uses?

From viewing the output file, I believe that it might be 'Extensible Hypertext Markup Language', but I'm not sure.

Question 2:

When downloading from z/OS to the desktop, what would be the best file extension to use?

From testing, I believe the extension to use might be '.xht'. ('.xht' seems to be associated with MS Excel within both my desktop and mail client.)

David assumption 1 is correct, for 2 use either .xht which is the default extension generated on Windows and UNIX or .xls
