I was wrong in the past. R is incredible. > foo <- read.csv("bar.csv") > summary(foo) > plot(foo$col1, foo$col2) Wow. I processed an 87 MB file today in under 1 min. Excel XP couldn't do that at all because of the 65k row limit; excel 2003 was so slow I had given up. I definitely plan to play a lot more with this. Brian Sent from my iPod
