What is the best database/spreadsheet program for large data files...

Hello, first post here,

I am looking for a good database/spreadsheet program that better fits my needs than numbers / excel.

I do a lot of website data work, importing/exporting inventory, customers, emails, affiliates, etc. I need a program that can handle 500,000+ row files and still respond fine. I have tried Numbers and Excel and both have a size restriction and get wayyy laggy when I use them.

I am looking for something that can have way less features too. No formulas, formatting, or any other goodies are needed. I just need to sort and delete and export the data to csv, etc.

Integration to Numbers and Excel is not needed. hahah I'm basically looking for a program that would be made back in the 80s ... but can run on my 10.6 iMac i5 and can chew humongous files.

Any ideas?

Yeah. Most/100% of the exports I take directly out of MySQL. I need something to quickly sort and delete + find and replace data. I could use MySQL... but it would be slower and over kill... like you said.

Thanks for the idea.

Good point. I just don't want to grow up and learn the world of DBMS... but hey.. its prob time.

Thanks for your post.
