- The 123 file format is a proprietary file format developed by the Lotus Development Corporation for use with its Lotus 1-2-3 spreadsheet software. It is a binary file format, which means that it stores data in a binary format that is not easily readable by humans.
- DIF stands for Data Interchange Format that is used to import/export spreadsheets data between different applications. These include Microsoft Excel, OpenOffice Calc, StarCalc and many others. It stores data contained in a single spreadsheet which is the only limitation of this file format.
