    With that many entries you may want to look into setting it up in access. If you want to stick with excel it depends on how you want to manipulate the data and what you want to show. I love pivot tables and pivot charts which allows you to filter and group more easily. I also use a lot of lookup formulas statements to pull specific data into a seperate table. For a very visual view of a straight up report conditional formating and/or if statements are great.
