Hi David,

For one thing, I suspect you've noticed that working with such a large table in Word slows it down dramatically. Excel, being designed to handle much larger data sets than this, would be far faster, especially at sorting the data & re-ordering the columns. It also has functions that can help you find duplicates quite easily, or help with extracting sub-sets of the data.
