Dear Jens, "2008" is a good year for epidemiology and statistic... Thank you for your work and the new versions of EPIDATA Analysis 2.xx. The "lifetable" programs are very interesting for epidemiologists. I hope that 2009 year will a new good year for you and for us, happy users of this software.
For your interest, I join a file with four variables and 239 lines. "Arret" is outcome variable (1=interest), and "durall" time variable in weeks. Plus two variables "plaisir" and "moment" in two categories (1 and 2). The result of lifetable command with "lifetable arret durall /by=plaisir /p50 /t" is curious (with version 159 and anterior) instead of "7" or "8" for the categorie "plaisir=2" (probability of 0.50). It's OK with variable "moment". Why the reason ?
Sincerely
Bernard Branger
