File Types

Application (App) (*.XXk) - A handheld software application file (such as TI CellSheet™ Converter, TI StudyCards™ Creator, TI NoteFolio™ Creator, TI LearningCheck™ Creator, etc.) Examples: calctool.89k, areaform.8xk.

Application Variable file (AppVar) (*.XXv, *.XXc, *.XXy) - A file that contains data for specific TI graphing calculators. Also called an AppVar. Examples: var01.8xv, var01.89c.

Data file (*.TIData) - A file that contains spreadsheet data for a TI graphing calculator.

Equation file (*.XXy) - A file that contains an equation (function) stored in the Y= editor of a graphing calculator. Examples: Y1.8xy, Y3.73y.
