Can you define how much "lots of data" is?

If you have the data in CSV files, it's probably not that large. Consider using Google Fusion Tables ( https://developers.google.com/fusiontables/docs/v1/sql-refer... ) You can set up simple queries by using SQL syntax (it's easy to learn).

After that, you can set up a simple interface by connecting with Google Apps Scripts, which is easy to learn and to create a simple interactive web site with.



this looks promising. But one of the things I need to do is remove duplicate rows. Can't figure out how to do that easily.


Parse the rows in any programming language you desire.

Insert the results of the parsing into any popular database.

Google "<my_chosen_database> delete duplicates"


that's the thing, I don't know any programming languages.


I completely overlooked that part. My apologies.
