I'm fairly new to Epidata and have a couple of questions:
1 In the file manager, the check file I've created has "recovered file fragments" as the file type. Is that correct?
2 I've discovered I need to delete a number of variables from the data file. This seems straightforward since I can simply delete them from the .qes file and they will be deleted from the .rec file. What happens to the .chk file when I open the new .rec file with deleted variables? Will Epidata revise the .chk file by deleting the checks for variables that no longer exist?
Many thanks for any help.
