A simple system for rapid data handling and management using microcomputers is proposed. The system covers the following three types of works: a) database management, b) statistical analysis, c) graphic presentation. Each work could be completed in a few minutes. Original experimental data keyed in Symphony spread sheets could be transferred directly or after conversion to ASCII or DIF format, to dBASE III for further editing and modification of data file structure which is suitable for various kinds of statistical analysis and graphic presentation. The system proves to be much more effective than the other integrated programs presently available in its simplicity, speediness, flexibility, expansivity and efficiency in statistical analysis. Experimental data stored in the spread sheets could be made directly available by the collaborators by sending floppy diskettes or communicating with other computers over telephone lines
