Dear Jamie,
You are right, that the batch file will work but on exit by pressing F10 it is not coming back to Batch file. Is there any command or option when I press F10 it will come on the batch file menu.

This can be done the same way. You can put the command for epidata into a batch file and Windows will open it. Of course, in Windows, the batch file works best if you create a shortcut to it. I've done this. The epidata command line is described on page 84 of the Extended Help (PDF) file on the download page. You have the same options (/autosave /confirm).
The elegant solution Jens has used in the past is to create a small HTML file that has hyperlinks which load epidata. Modern browsers do not permit you to execute files, even if they are local files, but EpiData Analysis does allow you to launch applications from HTML files. That may be too complicated for your application.

Dear Jamie,
I know that, but I have done in Epi6 by making a batch file as below:
================================= @ECHO off
:start cls type menu.txt
choice /c:1234 /s Choose Menu Item to Run:
IF ERRORLEVEL 4 GOTO END IF ERRORLEVEL 3 GOTO FormC IF ERRORLEVEL 2 GOTO FormB IF ERRORLEVEL 1 GOTO FormA
GOTO start
:FormA d:\epi6\enterx d:\first\first.rec /auto /confirm goto start
:FormB d:\epi6\enterx d:\day1\day1.rec /auto /confirm goto start
:FormC d:\epi6\enterx d:\day8\day8.rec /auto /confirm goto start
:end cls ECHO BYe BYe BYe @echo on
=================================
Is there any alternate for EPi Data to make a menu as above.
Thanks Rasool Bux

Only if the forms are linked via the relate command. (as in the HOUSE-PERSON-VISIT example on the web site)
