Dear Richard:
You can do it in EpiData Entry the Epi Info way, that is two at a time. Alternatively, use the elegant EpiData Analysis solution:
erase "abcde.rec" read "a.rec" append "b.rec" append "c.rec" append "d.rec" append "e.rec"
save "abcde.rec"
Regards,
Hans Rieder
I have several people entering data to a common structure at different sites. They email me the .rec files which I then combine into one file periodically. It seems as though I need to combine the files 2 at a time. Is it possible to combine them in one step? Are commands available such that a command file could do the task? Another option is to merge the files in SAS after converting the file 2 at a time, but that, too, would take several steps.
