Summary
Database management and statistical data analysis are often considered as two rather independent parts. In this paper we want to point out that database management should be integrated into statistical analysis systems and that difficulties arise when database management is done within a database system whereas statistical data analysis is done separately in a statistical analysis system. Within such a system it is also possible to obtain a more “intelligent” system which is able to support a user more efficiently.
