A user has sent this:I find a bug. EpiData (Classic) Entry v3.1 donot read "湖" for example FIELD1 BEFORE ENTRY IF oeoe="湖" THEN GOTO FIELD2 ENDIF END END the command cannot jump to field2. it has any way tosolve the problem. I suggest to use the new EntryClient and Manager instead . It seems for this standard jump, that you could use that one. Or else use numbers or a letter a....z instead of the local sign "湖" regards Jens Lauritsen EpiData Association <wuyonggang3852(a)vip.qq.com>

Dear Jens, Can we run EntryClient in multiple instances? As Epidata classic 3.1 version. Because I have used the relational double entry verification with Epidata using the execute wait command instead of relate in the _dbl.chk file for relational file in real time. This is the my Idea for double entry & verification for relational files in Epidata 3.1.

Check for update would be a good idea However, it could be done as Check for update now, or Check for update in a week or next time when EpiData is launched.

automatic warning/information on versions ?
by epidata-list＠lists.umanitoba.ca 22 Nov '14

22 Nov '14

With development of the software new versions are released every time development has reached a certain point. It can be annoying to be informed very often about new releases from software, since this takes time and processor and sometimes also for users costly Internet connections. On the other hand we know that some users run into problems due to NOT having updated to a newer version in which a given problem was solved. We could therefore consider to have the end user decide an option saying "check for new version every x days" (e.g. x could be 7). Please give viewpoints and considerations on this. Also I noted today that some "semi-comercial" sites most likely running from the advertisements on that site offer download of the software . The webplace in question have been contacted by me. If we have automatic checking with reference to the true EpiData website, that problem would be minimized . Is this a desired option or does it work fine with the users getting information from this list in general ? . We know the list have about 700 persons "listening", but the number of actual users is very much larger and these other users do not easily know that there is a new version around. regards Jens Lauritsen EpiData Association

Default behaviour in EntryClient during entryentry - and simplification
by epidata-list＠lists.umanitoba.ca 20 Nov '14

20 Nov '14

The next test build of Manager and EntryClient will be released rather soon, but not this week. The aspects we are working on - apart from securing stability - regards handling complex relational entry. To do so properly and with sufficient stability accross projects, operating systems and countries we need to be very focused on the niche in which EpiData Software is working. This demands some simplifications, which will be seen in the next test release: 1 backup after entry: Until now the backup files (e.g. Clinical_Example_2014-10-28_0.epz) would be placed in the "home" dir of the EntryClient user (e.g. for user jla = c:\documents and settings\jla\documents\EpiData\backup) . This resulted in a complex demand to handle a large number of combinations of operating systems and user rights. >From now on the backup file will be placed in a subfolder to the folder where EntryClient opens a given epx/epz file for entry. If the user want the backup placed in another folder this must be defined with a startup option. 2 Which status of addition/editing of records in EntryClient Aspects of this has been defined in preferences for EntryClient. >From now on EntryClient is assumed to be adding records to projects always. But obviously in such a way that if a given dataform has a key and that key is typed in, then the user will be informed and given the opportunity to jump to the relevant record. 3 For related systems the order of activation of "child" forms is part of the project epx file. Not a "preference" setting. This might seem a bit technical, but is needed in order to make sure that the software creates consistent data and also that we can complete the work within the funding of the project. Funding is always an issue for this and other development projects. Comments to this or other aspects of development are welcome. regards Jens Lauritsen EpiData Association

HI, I am very new to EpiData and am looking to use it for a Study which will require a relational database ie one study participant with multiple visits and tests Am I right in interpreting that only EpiData Classic Entry 3.1 is the only software that I can currently use. I have had a trial run using EpiData Manager 2.0.0.1 and it seems perfect for our study. Is it worth holding off setting up my database for the beta release of this version? When is it likely to be released?

Basically we find rather stable function with few access violations and remaining major problems b. We found reason to further change the xml structure contained in the epx file when dataforms are in a relational structure. This means that examples you have worked with in the testing of v2x might not work, when we release the next test build. c. A number of minor points have been found in various parts of the system. Mostly these were of text formulations, which had not taken the relational dataform aspect into consideration. I expect that the next test version will be moving from experimental level to pre-release level. This is an indication that we are approaching something which in the end will be applicable for true data entry and documentation. Further thoughts and reports of or examples of malfunction are highly appreciated.
