Hello all, I recently download EpiDataManager and -Client for Mac. I'm now recoding all my files in terms of valuelabel settings, checks and, most importantly for me now, unique keys. How can I do this? There is no solution button-wise and I cannot find a solution coding it into the .epx file Hope there's someone out there who can help me! -- Kind regards, Remco La Rivière *T* +31(0)6 12 21 78 63 *E *remcolariviere(a)gmail.com *W* http://www.remcolariviere.nl * * **

"error building data form..."

by epidata-list＠lists.umanitoba.ca

Dear All, Any experiences with getting the error message "error building data form..." when opening a rec file? I have rec files sent to me from different database locations and this is the first time I have had a problem opening a rec file for this database. Any suggestions? Many thanks, Louise

RE: [EpiData-list] problems in the installation

by epidata-list＠lists.umanitoba.ca

Hi Claudio, Is this line: "c:\Documents and settings\Claudio\Configurações locais\Dados de aplicativos\\epidataentryclient\epidataentryclient.cfg" exactly what you got from the software error message window? If so, it could be because Epidata doesn't support accents such as " õ " in the path to the file (or doesn't support the double back-slah " \\ " ??) Perhaps could you try saving your projet directly under "c:\Documents and settings\Claudio\" Best YMP ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Yves MARTIN-PREVEL, Epidemiologist, MD, MSc, PhD UMR204 'Nutripass' IRD/Montpellier2/Montpellier1 Institut de Recherche pour le Développement (IRD) BP 64501 - 911, avenue d'Agropolis 34394 MONTPELLIER CEDEX 5 (France) yves.martin-prevel(a)ird.fr Tel: +33(0)4.67.41.61.68 (Caution!

Suggestions for Analysis

by epidata-list＠lists.umanitoba.ca

Hello, Good year 2012 for Epidata members I have three suggestions about plans to improve Analysis : 1- Command "freq" : by default or with a new /"x", to sort ascending to even negative numbers or "0" number. With /sa ou others, sometimes, results of "freq" are mixed.. 2- Command "lifetable" : P50 (median) is sometimes false for little size of sample. 3- Command "scatter" : like with Epi-Info Dos, "/r", after scatter, was useful for the line of linear regression. Why not in Epidata Analysis ? Thank you for your work. Bernard Branger, Nantes, France (teacher of EPIDATA...)

Today's date issue

by epidata-list＠lists.umanitoba.ca

Hello I encountered a strange issue with today's date. The relational database looks like this: 1 parent file (Demographics) and 3 child files (midwife, 48-hour and 2-week) Each file includes today's date and worked well until I opened the file this morning and today's date is stuck on "30/12/2011". I tried to: * include a new today's date and the date is not automatically filled-out * delete today's date -save it - open rec file - close and add today's date to the qes-file - still today's date isn't filled out. If I create a qes file with only today's date included then the rec file does produce the correct today's date (03/01/2012). I asked program staff to enter one record and today's date updated itself to 03/01/2012. I am glad that this happened, however, I am not sure if this is a temporary or a permanent fix. Have you encountered a similar issue? If so, do you know what the problem might be and how I can solve this problem? Thanks, Renate
