Dear all,

I need to create a smallest datafile to work on it for logistic regression In EPIINFO6 it was very easy. the command was:

route c:\data\preclog.rec

write recfile chgt multi capot diaf foam withdraw cream depo rythm pil iud \

precl \

For epidata it is logopen "c:\data\preclog.rec"

but after, write recfile does nor work in Epidata

What is the process please?

Thanks

Dear Omar Bautista:

In the new analysis, this would be the grammar if you would wish to append the four files a.epx, b.epx, c.epx, d.epx and to sa ve them to a new file abcd.epx that you can then use henceforth:

cls; read "a.epx"; append !fn := "b.epx"; append !fn := "c.epx"; append !fn := "d.epx";

save "abcd.epx" !replace;

Best regards,

Hans

?Thanks! Very well explained.

I'm now exporting the data from EpiData using STATA format, on separate files. And then handling some merge-append functions within R. I will record the commands to run them as a little R script to make it more automatic. At least, this is working. But it would be great, in a near future, to learn how to solve this automatic id problem within EpiData.

Cheers,
