Dear EpiData users and experts
I am trying to merge
two files with different number of records and fields! The first file (intake) contains 1433 records and there is 21 fields in each record. The second one contains 1301 records and and each record contains 31 fields. Each one of the 1301 record has a corresponding record in the first file (same code). I would like to merge the two files, based on the code, so that I have a third file with 1301 records and 52 fields. I tried to use the merge function in EpiData Entry, but it didn't work (the product was a file with only 47 fields instead of 52 ). I must say that some fields in the two files have the same name-can this be a reason for not merging these fields? Your help will be highly appreciated Best, MK
