It would be great to have the relational structure in the new versions. In my case is very helpful because I work using some demographic considerations as the house information with another other information about the people that live that house.
In a relational structure I can know what kind of the people information is related with the house information, and so on. As doing a hierarchic analysis.

Dear all It is true that test versions oé the new manager and entryclient are available from http ://www.epidata.dk/testing.php But it is also true that the new versions can be used for datasets with real data. That is without relational structure. Any file which you download from the ordinary page : Http://www.epidata.dk/download.php is for routine use. If in doubt with any software - including epidata - always make a small test. But do so with a release version. Not with a test version. Regards jens Lauritsen Epidata association

Dear Dr Thambu To my knowledge, the Epidata Manager is still at its test version. So, it's better to use the existing Epidata Entry (or Epi Info) for your research data until Epidata Manager work properly. You can get documentation at http://www.epidata.dk. Best wishes

It is true that Epiinfo 6 would read a .rec with some errors, the type of error you describe will probably prevent you from getting the data you want out of the .rec file.
This problem usually arises because a file has been edited and some record lengths changed or from the introduction of some random characters with a disk error. I have always been able to reconstruct .rec files using a plain text editor like the old Windows Notepad. Even better is a programmer's editor (there are many) that can identify the end of each line in case you have a line with more than 80 characters in the data section (e.g. some spaces beyond the !).

Did you use Epidata for your data entry? If so, you can check and fix
your rec file using EpiInfo 6 (EpiInfo for DOS system, you can download it at CDC website). You'll surely have to delete some corrupted records. Then you can re-open this fixed database with Epidata.
----- Mail original ----- I am facing a problem with error "one or more records are corrupted" I have tried to look for any problem using notepad, deleting the last record but the rec file still won't open.
