Dear Han and all,
Thank you for your help and encourage!
I follow what you told me, even I did it before, and it still not work.
So I used the .QES save under a new name like test.qes and make a brand new data file name: test.rec. Then I entered some record, and I was able to use the FIND command for date format <mm/dd/yyyy>. I feel great and hopeful.
After that, I entered data with the previous .chk file ... name test.chk And I found that I was unable to use it FIND command for date field with format <mm/dd/yyyy>, it always give me the Information box with message "Search string(s) not found"; And still the FIND command only works for format date as <dd/mm/yyyy>.
May be something wrong with my check file?
Thank you very much for your help and support!

Dear Kim:
It works, but you must take care to enter it properly. Assume it is May
30, 2000, thus you must search:
05/30/2000
and it works (I just tested it).
Regards,
Hans

I recently installed Epidata version 3.1 and able to convert 1 of my recfile from EPI6 successfully!
I found that with field date using format <mm/dd/yyyy> unable to use control FIND <Ctrl F> unless it change to format <dd/mm/yyyy>.
Would you please help me to find way to using FIND command with format <mm/dd/yyyy>.

Dear all:
How much does EpiData allow formatting of text in questionnaires? For instance putting titles in the Questionnaire form in bold, italic or underlined mode? Or putting a block of the questionnaire in a different background colour?
Thank you for your help and guidance
