DIF

DIF (Data Interchange Format) is a text format that is used to exchange sheets between spreadsheets processors  (Microsoft Excel, OpenOffice.org Calc, Gnumeric, StarCalc, Lotus 1-2-3, FileMaker, dBase, Framework, Multiplan, etc). The only limitation of this format is that the DIF format may contain only one sheet in one book.
