Early in it's life Excel became the target of a trademark lawsuit by another company already selling a software package named “Excel”in the finance industry.As the result of the dispute Microsoft was required to refer to the program as “Microsoft Excel” in all of its formal press releases and legal document .However ,over time this practice has been ignored ,and Microsoft cleared up the issue permanently when they purchased the trademark of the other program .Microsoft also encouraged the use of the letters XL as shorthand for the program ； while this is no longer common ,the program’s icon on Windows still consists of a stylized combination of the two letters ,and the file extension of the default Excel format is .xls.Excel offers many tweaks over the earliest electronic spreadsheet ；however ,the essence remains ther same as in the original spreadsheet.
