version trouble

Hi, I am new to Epidata. I have spent many hours in writing forms for my study in the Epidata version 4.4 downloaded recently. When now testing it on my hospital where I will use it for registering data it tursn out that the hospital is running an earlier version 4.2 in which I cannot open the file from 4.4. My hospital will wait til this summer to install a new version. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to solve this without having to construct it all over again? Thanks, Ulf Ljungblad, Norway

Re: [EpiData-list] A question about combining the data

In Manager, use the Append function (under Tools). You will be asked to open one file; then add the other two files. Be sure to choose “None” in the box where you can select common fields used to append records. This means you want to add records to the end of the first file.

Hi, I personally use manager v4.4.2.1 and client 4.4.3.1 on my Mac. In the hospital they have now upgraded to v4.2. Would I expect any compability issues between these versions ? I need for another user to use the database in hospital and then it might me that I need to use it locally as well on my personal Mac. I was just afraid to muck things up if the versions are not compatible. Kind Regards -- Henning L. Stokmo

With a recent change to the epidata.dk <http://epidata.dk/> website, the download page has become inaccessible. The cause is known and a fix is expected shortly. Sincere apologies from the Epidata team.

Re: [EpiData-list] Virus varning

Dear all, I have scanned the new Windows exe file "setup.all.4.4.3.1.win.exe" with Kaspersky and found no issues. Kaspersky also provide a free service to whitelist software on https://whitelisting.kaspersky.com/whitelist_program. Furthermore McAfee Endpoint security reports the webplace epidata.dk safe to use and finds no threats when scanning the file setup.all.4.4.3.1.win.exe. However Microsoft Explorers "SmartScreen-filter" reports the program setup.all.4.4.3.1.win.exe with a generic security warning "This executable could harm the computer" and "SmartScreen-filter rapporterade att det inte är vanligt att det här programmet laddas ned och att det inte är signerat av utgivaren" translated to "The SmartScreen filter reported this executable to be an unusual download and the file is not signed by the provider". This is described in https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/17443/windows-internet-explorer-sm… and maybe creating a certificate could solve this IE problem? (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-gb/windows/uwp/packaging/create-certificate-p…) I hope this can be of some help. Seems though tat the download issue is restricted to Internet Explorers SmartScreen filter.
