The reported problems of EpiData Entry when verifying double entry has been solved. The problem was that when the file to compare with was missing, then a mysterious error message was given.

The principle has now been changed such that if the comparison file is not existing, then the verify procedure stops completely. The path information in the ...dbc file is no longer placed there. Therefore if the user wishes to compare to a first entry file residing in a different folder than where the ...dbl.rec file resides, then manually edit the ....dbc file.

Analysis is advancing A lot of work has been put into finding a managable help file structure, which also accomodates translation. If you see on the http://www.epidata.dk/testing.php page, you will see that there is now a partial translation to Spanish and the English version. Some issues of always showing the correct file is still lacking, but is expected to be fixed within a few weeks.

The test versions are placed on: http://www.epidata.dk/testing.php The upgraded EpiData Entry (build 18dec2005) is on the http://www.epidata.dk/download.php
