Hello,

I think the best way to get round this problem is to have a relational data base with two files: (i) the "Master" file with patient's information (ii) the related file with daily information

There are several examples of such related data entry and how it works on the Epidata website

Hope this helps

Hello. I was wondering if it is possible to copy and paste an entry? I am entering data for patients at a hospital by day, and each time I enter a new day's entry I have to re-type the patients' information. Is there a way to copy a previous entry for a patient and paste it on the new entry? Please help me as this adds a large amount of time to my work.

Thank you, YC _______________________________________________ EpiData-list mailing list EpiData-list@lists.umanitoba.ca http://lists.umanitoba.ca/mailman/listinfo/epidata-list
