Regarding my "usage patterns," I use spreadsheets (Apple's Numbers
program) to organize data. I then save it as a CSV file and import it
into a database table. It would be very hard to break with that
tradition, because I don't know of any other way to organize my data.
On the other hand, I have a column (Rank) that identifies different
taxonomic levels (kingdom, class, etc.). So I can easily sort a table
into specific taxonomic levels and save one level at a time for a
database table.
There is one problem, though. I can easily put all the vertebrate
orders and even families into a table. But genera might be harder, and
species probably won't work; there are simply too many. My spreadsheet
program is almost overwhelmed by fish species alone.

The maximum number of rows in the LibreOffice spreadsheet (Calc) is
1,073,741,824
LibreOffice is free and available for Apple Macs (as well as for Linux &
Microsoft O/S's), see
http://www.libreoffice.org/download
I suggest you download the 5.0 version
Cheers,
Gavin
