Files with the extension XLTHTML contain templates for Microsoft Excel, which were saved as HTML source code. Excel, the standard Microsoft Corporation spreadsheet, usually stores templates as xlt or xltx files. To view his documents in a browser, the user can save his document as XLTHTML file.

XLTHTML is no longer supported by Microsoft. Templates that should be published on the Web should therefore be saved as an mhtml or mht file.

It is possible that although a compatible program has been installed on user’s system, it is not used by the system to open it. This may happen because no default application was associated with this type of files. To associate XLTHTML files with given application, select "Open with" from drop-down menu (accessed by right-clicking on the file).
