Dear all A number of issues have been reported on the list since the release of version 1.4.2 of EntryClient and Manager. The following issues have been settled. Both programs: * Keyboard Shortcuts and Introduction documents are now placed on the computer and links to the net are indicated as such. * Install and running om Mac computer should be fixed now. * Clear link to the wiki (such that we can start adding information on the wiki). Manager: * Double Entry Validation works without field matching criteria * On import of Stata 13 files a message is given (use saveold command in Stata13) * Enhancements (bug fix) of export to SPSS * Opdated reports: - All reports (document) should now use system date setting from the local pc - Project description now contains dates of changes for structure, data and metadata * Prepare Double Entry: - An IDNUM field (autoincrement) is converteret to Integer and made "MUST ENTER " - More explanations if the created file cannot be saved. * Changed Field Properties, such that current value label is found under "edit" to access all value labels use alt+v * Import is now a fixed menu point under File Menu * other minor issues. (spelling errors, visual details) EntryClient: * When searching with Ctrl+F or Ctrl+L the default string search is now "contains" and the search is NOT case sensitive. * Bugfix for error making field length too short for all contents * Other bugfix, e.g. on shortcuts transferred from a form to another, e.g. on browse data. The version of this test is 1.4.3. Please report comments and errors on this list, including version of the software in which you found the error. The software is available from : Http://www.epidata.dk/testing.php If no major errors or bugs are reported the version 1.4.3 will replace the current public download version.
