Contributed

Abstract:
What is data management? Do you need a relational database? Do you need SAS? Do you need both? Can you "do it all" using EXCEL and ACCESS (no kidding??)? Should your data be normal (normalized)? Or abnormal?
Come join us for a panel discussion with audienc
e participation. Find out how others justify multiple "softwares" and how they make them sing in harmony, not discord. Find out why decisions made with dirty data may be better than those made throwing dice.
The panel will include Data Management professio
nals and be moderated by our section chairs Fran Akridge and Bill Calvert.
