Text::CVS_XS is also popular for this type of thing. Despite the name it will handle data formatted by definitions other than commas. If you are going to be manipulating the data via similar methods as an SQL database you may wish to consider DBI using the DBD::CSV driver. Having said that I don't have specific experience or reasons not to use Data::Table.
