Hello,
This is probably a stupid question so please forgive my limited understanding. Each month I record and analyze profitability data for my organization and add it to a spreadsheet month over month. Saved in an excel spreadsheet in binary format each month is usually 15-20 megabytes. When I get to about a quarters worth of data (about 300,000 rows x 54 columns) pivot table processing really bogs down. I know excel pretty well but have only a vague understanding of Access. Would an Access database be a good program to use instead of Excel? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
