excel and access melded would be a wonderful platform for medical.

I am doing clinical research with chronic disease which involves alpha and
numeric data fields. I cannot afford to pay the outlandish costs of the
usual statistical analysis providers. Wonder if you might have a solution
for me?

I assume you wish to store the data in access then retrieve it and analyze in
xl.
I have done the same. Approx how many fields and records do you anticipate
you might have?
Are all fields either text or numeric? or are you trying to store something
like images - digitized xrays- or the like?

Look into pivot tables that pull theri data from access. You can get your
devaitions and such. You are not limited to 65,535 records... Great way to
analyze...
