Hi all, I am looking for a data analysis software to run under Windows. I need to be able to both analyze the data then present it in an attractive fashion. Possibilities include StatView, JMP, and MathLab. Does anyone have a particularly good or bad experience with these ? My wish list is: 1. Macros 1.1. Open several different files 1.2. Extract the desired information 1.3. Manipulate the extracted information using the following calculations on pre-determined segments: 1.3.1. Standard deviation 1.3.2. Mean 1.3.3. Median 1.3.4. Find the position of the central 68% of the population 1.3.5. Standard mathematical operations and transcendental functions. 1.3.6. Analysis conditions established in one data set may be carried forward to another data set. 2. Present results 2.1. Histogram 2.2. (X,Y) plots 3. User interactions 3.1. Choose a macro to run 3.2. Batch processing a list of data files 3.3. Re-scale of axes 3.4. �Lasso� or tag points of interest 3.5. Re-caculate results based upon modification of key parameters. Ideally this would be through a pop-up box or other graphic embedded into the results window. 3.6. Sophisticated features can be hidden if necessary from an unsophisticated user. Sorry if that is hard to read :-| Thanks for the information, Paul Hayter
