Dear Ziad,

Perhaps it may be better to merge the files to produce one file of observations (all levels should be included). If you decide to go through this route, please remember that this can be done in EpiData Analysis using the MERGE command.

Best wishes

Tieble

Hi! I have had 2 date related vaiables called "datebase1" and "datebase2" in EpiData. When exported them into STATA, they are showing as "datebase" and "datebase" and both variables contain the same value now which is not correct.

It might be due to the total number of characters for the variable name, but my question is how can I fix it?

Best regards ziad
