These options have no place in bar and histograph
Example 1 : /XMIN="0" /XMAX="10" /XINC=1
Example 2 : /XMIN="0" /XMAX="10" /XINC="1"
and will be removed from the graph create form.
bar:
A bar uses only the values of the group variable assumed categorical. And each value
represented in the data will be shown. A small space will separate the bars.
Histogram
Unless you use the option /Xonly a histogram uses
all values from minimum to maximum value and fills in any intermediate
value not found in the data.
E.g. if data in variable V1 has values 10 20 30. : histogram v1
The histogram will show a bar with counts of observations at x=10
x=20 and x=30, and will show the values 11,12....19 21....29 without any bar.
With : his v1 /xonly
A condensed histogram will show with only values 10,20 and 30 and without space
between the bars.

"When I try to open a newly created .rec-file for data entry I receive
the error message "list index out of bounds (9174)".
When such errors occur it is good practice to confirm that you are using
latest version - 3.1 Jan 12th 2006: (120106)
If not download latest and try again.

Hello,
In Graphics menu or command line, Xinc (/graphics/histogram or bar) is inoperant.
Example 1 : /XMIN="0" /XMAX="10" /XINC=1
Example 2 : /XMIN="0" /XMAX="10" /XINC="1"
Thank you your help

If I understand properly, the problem arises with related files.
FileA - fields are district, x, y, z (one record per person, say 25 people)
FileB - fields are district, a, b, c (one record per district, say 5
districts)
To get freq of field a:
read filea
relate district fileb
freq a
This works, total of freqs (with missing) is 25. But of the files are
read in the wrong order:
read fileb
relate district filea
freq a
This will not work - you get only total of 5 freqs, one for each
district, because EpiData only matches the first record in FileA for
each district. I think that Epi6 complained about doing the relate this way.
If I have misunderstood the problem, perhaps provide more of the
commands you are using.
Si he entendido mal el problema, quizás proporcione más de los comandos
que usted está utilizando.

Hi Bellinda,
another way to do more complex skip and fill rules is using If ... then
in a After Entry-Block for Item2, something like this:
If (item1>1) and (item2>1) THEN
var1=7
var2=7
var3=-7
var4=0
...
GOTO nextvar
Endif
That's more programming than "jumps reset" but much more flexible.

Hi,
I have a question about the jumps reset command.
What I would like to do is based on the answers of 2 items in the
questionnaire I would like to either keep entering data or fill the rest
of the section with 7's.
I know how to use one item jumps reset, but not how to do it for 2
items. I was thinking about creating a sum of the items and then if the
sum equals a particular value either you keep going or fill. The two
items added together would have a range of 2-6 and when it's 2 I would
like to skip (fill) the section. However, my usage of EpiData up until
now has been rather basic, so the programming for this is a little
beyond me. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Bellinda
