by epidata-list＠lists.umanitoba.ca

Dear all Further main features NOT included in the current public release are now included in the experimental level test versions and released for user testing. Please find these at http://www.epidata.dk/testing.php (at the bottom) Versions are : 1.3.0.1 Dated: June 11th 2012 Notice that this is an EXPERIMENTAL RELEASE and should be used ONLY for testing with copies of data. For real projects use the public release version. Please work on copies of real data, changes could occur to file formats depending on the coming tests and errors happen. If you encrypt the file contents you cannot read the file with previous versions of Manager and EntryClient. Changes are: EpiData Manager: * Export (printing) to SVG file format, (click on tool in tool bar) which can be read by e.g. Inkscape (see inkscape.org) of dataforms * New export formats (CSV, SPSS, SAS) * View data * Encryption of project data (headers are still human readable) * Key unique including testing of status * Prepare Double Entry and Validate Double Entry functionality * Reports may now also be output as Text rather than HTML. EntryClient: * "Escape" key resets field text (to '' ) * Added read of encrypted project files. * Adapted function of the search form. * Field notes may now be displayed either in a windows or as a hint next to the field Following user tests, comments and fixing of reported bugs this could be expected to be released as the next version software (v1.3).

New versions EpiData Manager and EntryClient. (public release)

by epidata-list＠lists.umanitoba.ca

Dear List. Today we have released new updated versions of EpiData Manager and EpiData EntryClient. Version number: 1.1 - dated June 11th 2012 The released versions are available from Http://www.epidata.dk/download.php and fixes these two bugs: 1) "Out of Memory" bug present in Manager in combination with Windows Vista or 7. 2) Misplacement of the label for Questions/Variable name - if field was moved into a section, the label would jump unconditionally to the top of the section. We strongly encourage you to download the new versions to remedy these problems - in particular the "out of memory" bug. Kind regards, Torsten Bonde Christiansen Jens Lauritsen EpiData Associtaion.

Question re defining a new variable in EpiData Analysis

by epidata-list＠lists.umanitoba.ca

Hello, I am a relatively new EpiData user and am now using EpiData Analysis. In EpiData Analysis I would like to create a new variable which will be the number of days between two dates which I have collected in my EpiData dataset. I have started with "define" and the name of the new variable and the new variable will be a numeric variable of length 4. i.e: define smeartoreg1 #### However, I am having difficulty with the code for defining the number of days between two existing dates and would appreciate some advice on this. I think I am making a simple mistake that can easily be fixed. Many thanks. Kind regards, Kerri
