Dear All While trying to export from Manager and i have related data forms how do i export. Two separate forms are exported. Do i use stata to merge them? Is there a way of merging the files as 1 in manager/client and then exporting them? Thanks Thambu

You just export to one file per dataform in the project as you indicate.
Afterwards merge the files with the correct relation in Epidata analysis or In Stata
use dataform1 merge 1:1 key variables using dataform2
Continue with other dataforms. Maybe sometimes you need to summarize within a key before merge.
use visits gen N = 1 collapse (sum) N (min) hb , by(id) save sumvisit
And then merge to other data on id.
Since we cannot know in Epidata how you wish to analyze the related dataforms we will not develop this in manager, but do remember that as well collapse and merge can be made with epidata analysis.
