We are now close to the final form of all data management aspects. So it could be a proper time to start on writing a manual.
Untill such a product is ready, I am aware that a certain level of experience in programming pgm's is needed.
Start by reading the pdf explaining how to adopt previous pgm files. The pdf file is delivered with the software and found via the help menu.
Many aspects are the same or needs very little change. Eg write a := v17 ; Instead of a = v17 In analysis classic.
Happy new year to all

Dear Hans,Sub - Fonts and Background (Actual thread title should be file conversion from rec to epx and relating the files)Using Analysis for relating rec files is a good option.A PGM can easily save the updated rec files to epx files and relate also.I could save two related rec files to epx files.When I issued the Merge command,Read "D:\EpidataAnalysis0.9.0.0\FG\AgeSex2.epx";Merge FFNO !fn :="D:\EpidataAnalysis0.9.0.0\FG\FAMILY2.epx" !Table;Following error message was dislayed; ERROR: External lookup table dataset "ds1" has a non-unique key combinationPlease use the integrity tool to get a complete list of non-unique valuesWhat is this integrity tool and how to get a complete list of non-unique values using this tool?.......................................................The following command is also not working.edit var sex !valuelabel := label_sex !label : = "Examinee's sex";What is the need to edit Label option before conversion to epx files?Dr. Shavinder

Today we will give out a new experimental test version, where the check command (data integrity test) is very efficient, e.g. to find duplicates in a file
check key v1 v2 v3;
will tell which observations are duplicate in the combination of v1 v2 v3
In the new version colour of fonts and background is also working.

Dear all users
We have released next experimental version for testing, which you may find from the page: Http://www.epidata.dk/testing.php
Many issues have been fixed since the latest public test in early december. A complete list is found at the bottom.
In particular we have fixed and quality assured the data integrity command: check data, check key, check relate
But also many other issues, e.g. colour control. These lines will turn output and command line into yellow on black background.
set "COMMANDLINE BG COLOUR"?? := "#000000"; set "COMMANDLINE FONT COLOUR" := "#FFF000"; set "OUTPUT BG COLOUR"??????? := "#000000"; set "OUTPUT FONT COLOUR"????? := "#FFF000";
Many other aspects have been fixed, e.g. search and replace in editor in windows.
Next in line is the implementation of tables command and a few more issues in relation to data-management, which will then be announced as a pre-public version.
Please do some testing to
