Good evening,

Suppose that /the business/ want to store tabular data inside of a
file. They want manage that file using a GUI program that runs on OSX,
Linux, and Windows.  Additionally, it needs to be OSS and *not* MS Word.

Two options that immediately come to mind are [LibreOffice] and
[OpenOffice.]

The desire is that they could manage it in a format exportable to CSV so
that `R' could use it.

Specifically, they are looking for a tool that would export the data to
a CSV format that `R' was happy with /right out of the box/.

Have you found any good solutions that are similar or identical to this
and what are they?

Kind regards,


[LibreOffice] https://www.libreoffice.org/

[OpenOffice.] https://www.openoffice.org/
