Software integration. A relational data base manager is the foundation of the information management system. Data from the files created by this program can be transferred to a spreadsheet program for mathematical analysis, including generation of life-tables. The results of spreadsheet analysis can be exported to graphics software for creation of presentation quality plots or slides.

Spreadsheet organization. The data base reservation is created from records imported from the relational data base manager. Any desired subset of these records can be selected for the data query reservation and forms the basis for computation of a life-table using formulas stored in the life-table reservation. The entire process is automated using a macro command, a memorized set of keystrokes that performs a complex set of instructions whenever needed.
