I see Excel is being hated on again. To be honest, its quick visual sorting, filtering and graphing functions are exceptional. Fantastic for initial exploration of the data. I use it daily.
Once I see the data, of course #rstats for serious graphs :)
Loads of recommendations that are not Excel and do not save as binary in this thread.

I saw that, and confess thatm I've never used any of them. But double entry validation is important to me when hand keying data. Do you know if any of these other tools support that directly?

Please ask the people who recommended them. As one of the few women in comp/cog modelling, I don't do any (or very very rarely) manual data entry. So I'm not best placed to recommend sw. I do see huge issues with the advice offered and I can and will point that out though.

Sorry. Meant the "you" as more generic than specific, & request was for off-hand knowledge, not asking anyone to do homework. I've dealt with lots of manual entry. Biggest prob is miskeyed data. Type/range checks only a partial solution. There is no substitute for double entry.
