Contrary to what Kirk Dearden said. EPI-Info happen tobe the best in managing data entry except when you are not sure of the definitions of your variables, better still if you are not deaing with very large data size or your priority is not error free entry. You can then export to other packages for analysis e.g SAS, SPSS, Gold or SPLUS these three are wonderful.
