for the size of your data file, I think R can handle it. of course, it
also depends on your hardware. however, it might not be a good idea to
do heavy data manipulation work in R.
stata has very good routine for survey analysis. i am not sure if R is
as good as stata in terms of survey analysis.
Oh, Boy. This might result in a data dump since each of us has a personal
library. Here are the top dozen or so from mine:
1. Agresti, Alan, Categorical Data Analysis, 2nd ed., Wiley, 2002
2. Box, George E. P., William G. Hunter, and J. Stewart Hunter,
Statistics for Experimenters

Hello,
And thanks again for your answers, perspectives and more...
So, as I understood, R can (nearly) do anything. So, also because it's free,
it is worth a try ;-).
I then next will start with reading some introductory texts. And, wow, I'm
quite 'overloaded', because there is so much stuff ava
bably been too wordy, I've attempted to provide another
perspective for you. Good luck.
No, well said,
Thanks,
