What is XLSB file?
The XLSB (Excel Binary Spreadsheet) file extension, as defined by the Microsoft Office Excel application, is used in its popular spreadsheet and data-organizing software. It is a binary file format, created to store .XLSX files in a more efficient manner than the default XML format, and has been supported from version 2007 onwards. XLSB files are more compact than their XML counterparts, thus providing for better performance. [ ⏩ ] XLSB file extension
What is MDB file?
The MDB file extension is used by Microsoft Access to store databases. An .mdb file contains a database that enables users to store, edit, and manipulate data in a variety of ways. This type of files can be viewed with the Access software, or an alternative such as a free open source software like OpenOffice, developed by The Apache Software Foundation. [ ⏩ ] MDB file extension
How to convert the file from XLSB to MDB?
To successfully convert the XLSB file to MDB, you should install one of the applications from the list. After installing the software, open the program and select the file you want to convert (file-name.XLSB). The next step is to select the target format from the list, in this case MDB (usually converters allow you to convert to several different formats, so check out their features - maybe one of the available formats will suit you more than MDB).
What is a file conversion?
A data conversion is normally an automated process to some extent. The effect of the operation of one program is automatically the input product of another application. If that does not happen we need to help the process a little bit and convert the file on our own, e.g. XLSB to MDB. To obtain a matched structure of the data, it is necessary to use an appropriate converter.
Program for converting XLSB files to MDB files is a kind of a "binary code translator" compensating for the differences in the code or translating it in such a way so that another application could use it. For us, as users, the visible change will be only another file extension. (After converting the file, it will be the extension MDB, while before this step we had the XLSB file). For the programs, the difference is on a much higher level – either the application will be able to open a new MDB file, or not.
