Approach suggested by Kevin Sullivan is the best way to 'see' a list of
variables.  Following is strategy you can print out the list, change font,
format etc.

However, the list * command does work for al the variables and not just
first 15.  I tried it on a file with 145 variables and it worked.  The
problem arises when you have a lot of data in your file, then the top part
of the output going to your screen gets truncated due to memory limitations.

No limit in EpiData. In EpiInfo v6.xx ANALYSIS try:

        LIST *

No idea about EI2000

EpiTable can do it. ANALYSIS will do it with RAN() / RND() and GENERATE.
EpiCalc 2000 (www.myatt.demon.co.uk) does it too.

My techs reinstalled epiinfo and thus wrote over my mnu file to which i had
added  buttons to launch epidata and epical.  To do the same just consult the
button command in your manual. I believe both these programs should be packaged
with epiinfo.

Hi, I'm doing some programs in Analysis of Epi Info
2000, but I have doubts,

I hope you'll help me.
In my program I ask a date with the Dialog command,
but I need that date in the EpiInfo browser.
To ask the date I use:
DIALOG "Please write the initial date (mm/dd/yyyy)?"
date TITLETEXT="Initial Date"

After this I used the following instruction:
type "The Initial date is: " @@date
I also used:
type "The Initial date is: @@date"
but any of these work.
I want the date in the Analysis browser because I need
to print them.

What Can I do?, please help me!!

Sincerely
 Carlos Reyes.

The limit on records is just above 4 billion. The limit on lines in a
.QES file is 500. The limit on record width is 2048 bytes (characters).
EpiData (http://www.epidata.dk) relaxes these limits but if you want to
analyse data with EpiInfo v6.xx ANALYSIS then these limits should be
adhered to.

It was not there the last time I looked but that was some months ago. I

I think validation (double entry) is not available in epi2k. If you
entered your data in epi2000 export the two files to rec files and then
do the validation with epidata.

Another question yesterday was the limit on number of fields. Epiinfo v6
can have as many fields as you can fit into 500 lines of a qes file.
Actually analysis.exe of v6 will read rec files that have lines up to
999. The reason for the 999 is a mere limitation on a parameter which
indicates the position from the beginning of the dataentry screen, saying
this is line xxx. And there is only place for 3 digits.=20

EpiData has the same principle. But with 500 (or 999) plenty of fields
can be there. E.g. if you have 5 fields pr line it will be more than 1000
fields which should be sufficient for all well planned empirical datasets
in general settings.=20

e.g. six fields on one line:

Sometimes timeseries studies have more variables, but then you would most
likely not enter the data by "hand", but extract them from some other
system.

<fontfamily><param>Arial</param><smaller>Approach suggested by Kevin
Sullivan is the best way to 'see' a list of variables.  Following is
strategy you can print out the list, change font, format etc.

</smaller></fontfamily>

<fontfamily><param>Arial</param><smaller>However, the list * command does
work for al the variables and not just first 15.  I tried it on a file
with 145 variables and it worked.  The problem arises when you have a lot
of data in your file, then the top part of the output going to your
screen gets truncated due to memory limitations.

Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"

Hello, Everybody,

Thanks to all who visited the Epi Forums Message Boards! Unfortunately, the company must have suffered a "Wall Street" downturn (things happen so fast on the Net).

I'm sorry if you had problems with postings. I have set up another message board that is easy to use. Just click on the blinking graphic "View My Message Board" on the Epi Forums Page and you will get right to the message board.

Post what you like on it (as long as it pertains to Epi Info or EpiData). I will make every effort to respond to those postings pertaining to Epi Info 6, as I have used this software for many years. I will compile any postings that I think will be useful for all Epi Info 6 users into a Web page that will be accessible from the Epi Forums Web page. If you have nice tricks and ideas you've developed and used over the years, you can send them in, and I'll put it on a Web page. You will be properly credited for your creativity.

I am doing this primarily for the benefit of my students. I also get a lot of questions from professionals who have attended my Epi Info workshops. Rather than spend time on the phone, or sending out numerous e-mails, I would  like to be able to send them somewhere that they can get answers to their questions, whether from me or others who use the software.

Thanks for your understanding.

Thanks Gilibert
I had the same problem with epi6 ENTER and ENTERX (runtime error 200)
I tried the solution you proposed and it works nicely with PIII at 900 Mhz.
moslo132.zip can be found  and downloaded from:
http://members.fortunecity.co.uk/dospage

Gilibert wrote

"In the zip attached you will find a freeware I use for running old .com or
.exe dos programs witch give 'run time error 200' with high speed cpu. Never
had to try it with Epi but it should work if the problem is really of the
speed.

The command for running Epi-Info will look like :

MOSLO.COM /20 c:\EPI\EPI6.EXE

The parameter /20 (ie % of actual cpu speed I think) can be ajusted but in
my experience it works best.

Plz tell me if it works for your fast PC."

Problems With Fast Computers

The Epi Info 6 programs have been recompiled with libraries and compiler
patches to fix the error described below.  The programs will be available on
our website soon, but those in a hurry can request them from the Epi Info

I tried the solution you proposed and it works nicely with PIII at 900 Mhz.
moslo132.zip can be found  and downloaded from:
http://members.fortunecity.co.uk/dospage

Gilibert wrote

"In the zip attached you will find a freeware I use for running old .com or
.exe dos programs witch give 'run time error 200' with high speed cpu. Never
had to try it with Epi but it should work if the problem is really of the
speed.

The command for running Epi-Info will look like :

MOSLO.COM /20 c:\EPI\EPI6.EXE

The parameter /20 (ie % of actual cpu speed I think) can be ajusted but in
my experience it works best.

Plz tell me if it works for your fast PC."

The search above in Google.com turned up 79,000 references to random =

generators, some of which are quite sophisticated and many of which are

EpiTable can do it. ANALYSIS will do it with RAN() / RND() and =
GENERATE.
EpiCalc 2000 (www.myatt.demon.co.uk) does it too.

No limit in EpiData. In EpiInfo v6.xx ANALYSIS try:

        LIST *

No idea about EI2000

In Epi 2000, if you would like to limit the list to the first 25  records,
use   SELECT UNIQUEKEY < 26, for example, before you do the list.  It isn't
much fun to list 100,000 records currently, and it generates a very large
HTML page!   Don't forget to unselect with SELECT so that you can proceed
with the analysis.

No, it isn't.  Type (list *) without parentheses and your computer will run

The only time the DOS windows are a problem is when you are projecting =

Sorry for the long absence from the List.  We have been busy with
development, testing, teaching, stomping bugs, etc.

We plan to have a new version of Epi Info 6 ready within a few weeks.  It
addresses the problems that people have encountered with fast computers
causing the programs not to run.  These proved to be fixable and we should
have a more compact version with all the "Year 2000" upgrade features
integrated as well.  It will not, however, be a Windows version of Epi 6.

The next version of Epi Info 2000, will be 1.1.  It will contain the CSAMPLE
features for analysis of complex sample data, as well as a number of bug
fixes.  Epi Info 2000, Version 1.2 will contain a package for data entry on
a web server, using the same questionnaire developed for the desktop, and
also NUTSTAT with the year 2000 growth reference curves distributed by the
U.S. National Center for Health Statistics.  It will also have a conversion
utility for .CHK files from Epi 6.  Hopefully 1.1 will be released quite
soon, and 1.2 in a few months.

As you know from this List, EpiData for Windows is another alternative for
data entry using Epi 6 QES and REC files.  We are also trying to find a way
to make it easier to move back and forth between Epi 6 data files and those
for Epi 2000, although Epi 2000 already can import and export to Epi 6
format and will analyze Epi 6 files by making a temporary import table of
which the user is not aware.

We had a Retreat with 20+ users, some of whom you know well from the List,
and we should have a summary available soon.

Keep those emails coming.

Andy Dean

Subject: [EPI-INFO] Future of Epi info

A user's viewpoint -
Epi info ver 5 and 6 have been with us for a decade. We have been hoping of
an upgrade in the near future. All of us users know that Epi info really
became usable only after ver 5 onwards. We are seeing the similar teething
problems with Epi info 2000. Very few among us have jumped into the
bandwagon. This new release needs time to settle the bugs. I am not a
technical person. However being a user I have two humble suggestions-
1. An upgrade of Epi info 6.04 (written in turbo pascal) should be developed
in windows version. Many friends have named it EI7 for windows. This should
be developed fast.
2. Epi info 2000 can be a another software with enhanced features. This can
be developed subsequently.

Frankly it is not convenient to use one software for data entry, another for
analysis and a third one for printing the formatted reports.
Andy Dean and his team did a marvelous job all these  years, single
handedly. They need our support in whatever form it can be.

Epi info 6.04 is really doing good job on our old 386 machines. For my field
work it has lot of good features. I want this legacy to remain alive and
prosper. I request Andy Dean to let us know the current status of
development of the next upgrades.

Once again I extend my full support to the Epi info Developer Team at CDC.

 Yours Sincerely,

I am just getting used to EPI after a few years of none use, using Epi2000
for first time today.

I seem to be making fair progress but I wonder if someone can help me lower
the learning curve with some data I need to produce.

I have an EPI database with 1620 entered questionnaire dating back to 1997,
each has the date  the questionnaire was filled out. .  Several variables
ask the respondents to respond to Likerk scaled questions that are entered
into epi simply as a numeric value (1= unsatisfied,  up to 4 = Very
satisfied).  I can produce a graph of satisfaction per variable for the
entire database but would like to do a comparison of each year.  I could use
the SELECT command to produce individual charts per year but I figure there
must be a more efficient way to compare each year on one graph.

Thanks for any help,

Andy.

Try EpiData (http://www.epidata.dk) which does the EpIInfo ENTER / CHECK

<DIV><FONT face="Geneva, Arial, Sans-serif">I see there is much discussion regarding the 'Future'. </FONT><FONT face="Geneva, Arial, Sans-serif">Regardless of the ultimate outcome of this debate,&nbsp;both the County of Los Angeles and the State of California are moving forward in their use of Epi2000.&nbsp; </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Geneva, Arial, Sans-serif"></FONT>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Geneva, Arial, Sans-serif">Last week The Family Health Outcomes Project, which is a collaborative project of the California Department of Health Services and the University of California, San Francisco, held&nbsp;1-day training sessions (about 18 persons per day) on using EpiInfo 2000 for over 50 users from 35 different California counties. About 1/3 of the users had previous EpiInfo Dos experience.&nbsp;&nbsp; The aim of the training was to provide local counties with the tools to Import, Analyze, run Reports, Graphs, and Maps using birth data. (This is particularly targeted to the smaller counties Maternal and Child Health Programs who may not have SAS or SPSS capabilities readily available).&nbsp;&nbsp; From a preliminary review of course evaluations and comments&nbsp;both the Product and Training session were clearly a success.&nbsp;&nbsp;</FONT></DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Having&nbsp;assisted both the EpiInfo DOS training (4 years ago) and now at the Windows training sessions, I can say with that clearly the current training session was much easier both for the users (as well as the trainers).</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face="Geneva, Arial, Sans-serif">The install adds a new Directory called Births under the Epi2000 Directory.&nbsp; All files (mostly pgms, jpgs, html, txt, docs, etc) are copied into the Births subdirectory. The only files which the install program copies outside of the Births subdirectory are several Bat files to the root (shortcuts to start the Births.mnu), and a new copy of the Epi2000.MNU into the Epi2000 Directory.&nbsp; This MNU copy basically adds a new button to your Epi2000 MNU --one for the Births application.&nbsp; If you do not wish to have your old Epi2000 MNU copied over just remark out that line in the Install.bat.</FONT></DIV>

Dear Marc,

I would like to ask when are you going to have a next training for
EPI2000 in San Francisco or Bay area (CA, USA) and how to
apply to get a training!

Thank you very much!

Greetings:

I see there is much discussion regarding the 'Future'. Regardless of the
ultimate outcome of this debate, both the County of Los Angeles and the
State
of California are moving forward in their use of Epi2000.

Last week The Family Health Outcomes Project, which is a collaborative
project
of the California Department of Health Services and the University of
California, San Francisco, held 1-day training sessions (about 18 persons
per
day) on using EpiInfo 2000 for over 50 users from 35 different California
counties. About 1/3 of the users had previous EpiInfo Dos experience.   The
aim of the training was to provide local counties with the tools to Import,
Analyze, run Reports, Graphs, and Maps using birth data. (This is
particularly
targeted to the smaller counties Maternal and Child Health Programs who may
not have SAS or SPSS capabilities readily available).   From a preliminary
review of course evaluations and comments both the Product and Training
session were clearly a success.

Having assisted both the EpiInfo DOS training (4 years ago) and now at the
Windows training sessions, I can say with that clearly the current training
session was much easier both for the users (as well as the trainers).

Those interested in downloading a copy of the application which was used for
the this training can do so at:

http://www.ucsf.edu/fhop/fhopaps.html#SOFTWARE

Two files will be in the zip file for EpiBC 2000.  One is the Install.bat,
the
default for this is the C drive, if you wish to add another drive letter, do
so after install.bat D:

The install adds a new Directory called Births under the Epi2000 Directory.
All files (mostly pgms, jpgs, html, txt, docs, etc) are copied into the
Births
subdirectory. The only files which the install program copies outside of the
Births subdirectory are several Bat files to the root (shortcuts to start
the
Births.mnu), and a new copy of the Epi2000.MNU into the Epi2000 Directory.
This MNU copy basically adds a new button to your Epi2000 MNU --one for the
Births application.  If you do not wish to have your old Epi2000 MNU copied
over just remark out that line in the Install.bat.

Correct me if I'm mistaken (I can hardly read very simple programs in C),
but I see
at least four problems involved - and a simplifying suggestion at the end:

1.- There are some non-releasable libraries that are linked from the EI6
releasable
sources.
- Is the code nicely separated so that you can release the public-domain
part easily?
If that were the case, then I guess (patient) programmers could use the
available
code to see what the "missing" routines do, and find or write the needed
replace-
ment, possibly asking for help in the free/open-source software world. (Does
any-
one want to be slashdotted (ie have their machine overloaded by interested
readers?
If you dare, go and post in http://slashdot.org.)
- If the non-releasable libraries are sort of tangled with the rest of the
code, then
that would take programmers' time - possibly lots of it. I guess that would
mean
money, or perhaps a small-ish distributed team with a non-disclosure
agreement of
some sort. This would also have the advantage of actually seeing whatever
docu-
mentation is available for the non-usable routines, in order to find or
write the
needed replacement.
- It might be that the non-releasable libraries are nicely separated from
the public-
domain code, but they are simply too many? Steven S Yoon says "several".

There's no need to guess.

Where are we regarding this issue? I think it's important to have a rough
estimate
of the size of the task - before or at the moment of requesting coding help.
Maybe
it's just huge?

2.- There's the problem of actually handing the source to those willing to
take a
look at it and work on it. You could publish it (the public domain part) in
the
same website where you publish the EI6 binaries. They could be mirrored in
the same way, too. This is probably the smallest problem.

3.- There's, a minute later, the problem of how to manage the resulting
creative
chaos of contributions, patches, wish- lists and so on. Now this is probably
a big
issue, and would probably mean work.
- Perhaps some of the EI Development Team have participated in an
open-source
project like those at http://www.sourceforge.net? Any in this list?
- Or could someone "recruit" someone with the needed experience in this
regard?
If this takes time, so be it. But I think it's very important that someone
takes care
of selecting and integrating contributions. I don't think we want to have
released
code that is in fact "orphan" code - it would be almost useless.
- There's the problem that the code, by now, runs only on MSDOS (or MSDOS
com-
patible) platforms, so perhaps this would appeal less to Linux/etc
developpers,
and a (big) effort should be done to make it multiplatform first? Or can it
be used
in a DOS windows in a Linux PC? This is important if we want to attract
potentially
interested people.

It may be important to know what experienced people we have, or if there are
other alternatives (cooperation with some computer science department?), or
if it's
not as difficult as it seems.

4.- Also, there's the licensing "problem".
- Steven Yoon says it's "public domain". It can be re-released under a
different
license if wanted.
- Some will prefer GPL or LGPL. This would have the advantage of letting the
developers link to GPL libraries. I think the LGPL lets our code to be
included
in commercial programs - this would be useful if commercial programs (I'm
thinking of GP practices and hospitals, for instance) would be able to
include
modules to export their data to EI format, or even to have EI code as a very
integrated code within their applications.
- It would be good to be able to have EI (much of this applies to EpiData
too,
of course) in hand-held devices and so on.
- There are other licenses (BSD, Artistic) that could be explored.
- As soon as contributions (changes to the code-base) are accepted, then
licenses
matter. For example, I'm not sure if the contributors need to be explicit in
that
they put their contribution in the public domain.
- Very importantly, if you want to use "free" libraries, the licence of our
code must
be "compatibly free". Some consider GPL restrictive - but if there's plenty
of
good libraries to link to, the advantages would be larger than the
limitations.
- I think this should be looked at in some detail, discussed openly (more
eyeballs)
and possibly advice should be seeked - the Free Software Foundation, radical
as it
is, sounds like a place to ask. Also, more specifically related to health
issues, the
http://www.linuxmednews.org website.

It's better to take our time and have things planned in the open if
possible.
The potential is very interesting and we should make the most of it.

Finally - could we start slowly and do only ANALYSIS? That would be more
easily
managed than the whole lot, and many of us think ANALYSIS is possibly the
most
important piece now.
Or are there smaller parts that could be surgically removed and used from
other
programs? REPORT, perhaps?
Perhaps some brave souls can get the source from the CDC team and have
a deep look at these problems? Maybe someone already has?

Again, I suggest the CDC to create (or tell us if it exists) a specific list
for
these developement issues. I doubt these issues will be resolved with a
couple
of messages.

I think that Lucas Gonza's comment that ANALYSIS is the priority module to
convert is exactly right.   The Analysis module of Epi-Info 6.04 is
unequalled in terms of a balance between simplicity and power  -  it would
be a shame to lose this capacity as new and emerging operating systems
render the original Analysis program unusable.  A restructured Analysis
Program paired with Epi-Data would likely meet 95% of the needs of most
users.

A restructured and more robust Report module would also be very useful,
especially in setting up turn key surveillance systems.

With respect to remarks about newer operating systems
making ANALYSIS obsolete, I wonder if this is not
a case of a self-fullfilling prophecy.  If computer science
is "that great", I am sure that older instructions, command modules,
and so forth, will be able to be emulated, or re-created.
With RAM and disk storage as well as hardware,
undergoing great reductions in cost,
there will be room for little MS-DOS.

Some participants in the software business
sometimes think that the only
way to stay in business
is to provide revisions that
put older versions out of business.
Predictions and prophecies are not always right.
As one of my teachers said in a retirement speech,
beware hubris.

Cordially,

I totally agree with Lucas Gonza and Chris Green.  The ANALYSIS module in
Epi 6 is a wonderful program, and it would be a shame if it became rendered
useless because a faster computer and a different operating system do not
support it.

There is urgent need to 'upgrade' the Epi 6.  It wouldn't be a bad idea to
keep the DOS based Epiinfo running in parallel to the Epi 2000, after the
bugs are hammered out of the later.

Very much agreeing and welcoming the suggestion to urgent upgrade of EPI 6
DOS version as well as possible contribution and feedback.  How about the
EPITABLE module, which is really fantastic and can able to produce some
summary statistic without raw data that hardly can be obtained from some
other packages.  While we are talking about the future need of Epi-info, I
really appreciate and grateful for the EPI-INFO development team to make
this package available in most user-friendly way.

All the best to discussion group

I think that Lucas Gonza's comment that ANALYSIS is the priority module to
convert is exactly right.   The Analysis module of Epi-Info 6.04 is
unequalled in terms of a balance between simplicity and power  -  it would
be a shame to lose this capacity as new and emerging operating systems
render the original Analysis program unusable.  A restructured Analysis
Program paired with Epi-Data would likely meet 95% of the needs of most
users.
A restructured and more robust Report module would also be very useful,
especially in setting up turn key surveillance systems.

Estimado Jorge:
Estos problemas los hemos tenido con muchas impresoras.
La forma en que hemos resuelto esto es enviar las salidas a un archivo de
texto, que luego recuperamos con algun procesador bajo windows, lo que
permite controlar orientacin de pgina y tamao de letra.
Para ello, en el Procesador, hay que seleccionar una fuente de ancho fijo,
como Courier, para evitar que las tablas piredan su formato.

La salida la hacemos mediante instrucciones de este tipo

ERASE SALIDA.TXT
SET PAGE= 60, 300
ROUTE SALIDA.TXT

FREQ...
TABLES...

etc.

Atte,

Have a look at EpiCalc 2000. It is available from:

        http://www.myatt.demon.co.uk

Not a direct replacement but it does most of what EpiTable does and soem
other stuff.

Hello,

I am a beginner with Epi-Info 2000 and seem to be getting mixed up with the
tutorials. I have entered a set of data I'm trying to analyze. Each respondent
completed three different questionnaires, including one that has background
information such as age, sex, etc. I'll appreciate if someone could help me with
the following problems:
1. Do I have to enter each respondent's total score on each questionnaire? If
not, how could I do so with the program?
2. Two of the questionnaires only have the only the same ID assigned to each
respondent in the background info questionnaire. How do I say analyze total
score on each questionnaire by age, sex, or any other info on the background
questionnaire?
3. With regards to defining variables, do I need to give say total score another
key and sex another key to find the relationship between them?

Thanks for your help.

EpiInfo 2000 can read Access 97 files but not Access 2000 files. I suggest
you convert first.

MISTY

My name is Misty
I am but three,
My eyes are swollen
I cannot see,=20
 =20
I must be stupid
I must be bad,
What else could have made
Made my daddy so mad?=20
 =20
I wish I were better
I wish I weren't ugly,
Then maybe my mommy
Would still want to hug me.=20
 =20
I can't speak at all
I Can't do a wrong
Or else I'm locked up
All the day long.=20
 =20
When I awake
I'm all alone
The house is dark
My folks aren't home.=20
 =20
When my mommy does come
I'll try and be nice,
So maybe I'll get just
One whipping tonight.=20
 =20
Don't make a sound!
I just heard a car
My daddy is back
From Charlie's Bar.=20
 =20
I hear him curse
My name he calls
I press myself
Against the wall=20
 =20
I try and hide
From his evil eyes
I'm so afraid now
I'm starting to cry=20
 =20
He finds me weeping
He shouts ugly words,
He says its my fault
That he suffers at work.
=20
He slaps me and hits me
And yells at me more,
I finally get free
And I run for the door.
=20
He's already locked it
And I start to bawl,
He takes me and throws me
Against the hard wall.
=20
I fall to the floor
With my bones nearly broken,
And my daddy continues
With more bad words spoken.=20
 =20
"I'm sorry!", I scream
But its now much too late
His face has been twisted
Into unimaginable hate

The hurt and the pain
Again and again
Oh please God, have mercy!
Oh please let it end!
=20
And he finally stops
And heads for the door,
While I lay there motionless
Sprawled on the floor
=20
My name is Misty
And I am but three,
Tonight my daddy
Murdered me.
=20
There are thousands of kids out there just like Misty.
And you can help stop this problem.
Please pass this poem on because as crazy as it might sound, it might just
indirectly change a life. You NEVER
know.

No, it isn't.  Type (list *) without parentheses and your computer will run
the list command for all variables in the dataset.

Hi All,

I want to draw a random sample in EPI2000. I want to generate the random =
numbers,
so StatCalc won't do. Is there a way?
I think you could do it in Epi 6.

Thanks

In Epi6, you can use the Epitable program.  You will find two options
"Random number list" and "Random number table" under the sample menu.

        Hi All,

        I want to draw a random sample in EPI2000. I want to generate the
random numbers,
        so StatCalc won't do. Is there a way?
        I think you could do it in Epi 6.

        Thanks

If you are in analysis and click on "READ", you must select an Epi Info =
2000 "Project" (a .mdb file). If you just want to look at data in an Excel =
spread sheet, this Epi Info 2000 project doesn't really have to do =
anything, it just needs to be selected. You can choose "change project" =
then enter "temp" or "dummy" , and then choose the format and the file you =
want. An empty database will be created for the project. I suppose you =
could also select an existing Epi Info 2000 project you have, and then go =
look at your data. I don't do this in order to avoid any chance of =
accidently corrupting the data in an existing project.=20

As the earlier post suggested, you must also be sure that Epi Info 2000 =
supports your file type--it won't read Access 2000 files (but should be =
able to read Excel 2000 files if you choose Excel 8.0 as the input type).

Hope that helps.

I will make two comments on the reading of Excel files by Epi Info 2000 =
that I know to cause problems.

First Epi Info 2000 can not read Excel 2.1 files =AF it only goes back to =
Excel 3.0.  I have encountered some of these older files on CD-ROM data =
collections.  The easy solution is to open and save the file in a more =
recent format.

Second, Epi Info 2000 can not read Excel worksheets that contain a space =
character (there may be some punctuation limitations as well but I don't =
remember for sure).   Simple solution: rename your Excel worksheets so =
that they do not include a space.

Hope this helps.

Dear group,

I'm very frustrated trying to read a very simple excel 2000 file.
For some reason I couldn't get any of the file types work out,
including excel 8, 5, 4, 3, 2 types, tab-delimited text, csv-delimited =
text file types.

Could anyone try to read an excel 2000 file containing the following data
and let me know you read it for analysis?

Thank you very much!
Sungil

<DIV></DIV>&gt;** High Priority **
<DIV></DIV>&gt;
<DIV></DIV>&gt;Hi
<DIV></DIV>&gt;
<DIV></DIV>&gt;we have having a lot of trouble importing an Epi6 .rec file into an Epi2000 mdb.
<DIV></DIV>&gt;
<DIV></DIV>&gt;The make view works, all fields are read
<DIV></DIV>&gt;
<DIV></DIV>&gt;however: only the data for the first 200 fields is brought across, for the remaining 53 fields no data comes across, yet there is data in all the fields in Epi6
<DIV></DIV>&gt;
<DIV></DIV>&gt;has any-one else experienced this problem or have any ideas how we can get around it?

<DIV></DIV>&gt;Date: Mon, 26 Feb 2001 09:22:07 -0500
<DIV></DIV>&gt;
<DIV></DIV>&gt;I am an experienced EpiInfo 6 user but new to to Epi Info 2000
<DIV></DIV>&gt;
<DIV></DIV>&gt;I have brought 8000 ambulance runs from motor vehicle crashes into MS Access 97. Using Epi Info 2000 Analysis on the Access 97 table, I encounter some problems with define, assign and recode. I have included some code at the end of the message
<DIV></DIV>&gt;
<DIV></DIV>&gt;I have a numeric variable Age.
<DIV></DIV>&gt;
<DIV></DIV>&gt;Variable Age_type has the following values:
<DIV></DIV>&gt;
<DIV></DIV>&gt;0 years
<DIV></DIV>&gt;1 months
<DIV></DIV>&gt;2 days
<DIV></DIV>&gt;
<DIV></DIV>&gt;There are about 50 cases in my data set whose age is given in months or days. When I try to create a variable Age_yrs (age in years) making ages in months or days = 0, it comes out as a text variable (I want it to be numeric)
<DIV></DIV>&gt;
<DIV></DIV>&gt;I want to create age groups so that I can make cross tables with other variables.
<DIV></DIV>&gt;
<DIV></DIV>&gt;1. when I define a variable Age5gp, I cannot recode Age to Age5gp
<DIV></DIV>&gt;
<DIV></DIV>&gt; I tried to assign a value to age5gp but that became the permanent value. The Epi Info 2000 manual refers us to another manner of recoding in the How To section but I didn't find that.
<DIV></DIV>&gt;

<html><P>Greetings:</P>
<P>REC vs MDB</P>
<P>As a longtime Epi5 and 6 user/developer, I strongly endorse CDC's decision to move to an ODBC database which is in common use.</P>
<P>Here at the Los Angeles County Health Department we&nbsp;place a large number of databases&nbsp;onto our Internet or Intranet. It&nbsp;is easy for us to develop an MDB in Epi2000 and then&nbsp;place it on our server and hit it with&nbsp;a CGI application.&nbsp; (Although Access may not be as robust as&nbsp; 'Industrial Strength' DB's such as SQL7/2000, Oracle, Sybase, etc, ---for small web based querry applications it serves quite well.).</P>
<P>Best</P>

Its impossible, in the epi6
the LIST *,     or the LIST FIELD1 TO FIELD 55 command
only show the first 15 variables
It's independent of the set page or the set plines command
That appear as limitation of the analysis program

Thank you

It is a limitation of a fixed 12pt Courier font in the output window in
Analysis - 80 characters across the screen.  In ANALYSIS, there are
vertical lines in the first and 80th column, so you can see only 78 columns
of info.  So, based on the width of the variable name and variable itself,
78 is the limit of what can be seen on the screen on one line.  What I
usually do is route the list to a file, read that file into Word, and play
around with it, such as either selecting a smaller font and/or printing
landscape.  An example of code using the OSWEGO data set would be:

READ OSWEGO
DELETE OSWE.OUT
ROUTE OSWE.OUT
SET PAGE=100,300
ROUTE

         Good luck

Dear list member,

I've been facing the scamble of text in this group discussion (as shown in the
attached jpeg file) for many months.  Can anyone tell me how to fix it or is
this the html mail's problem?  Does anyone get the same problem like this?  My
past solution to read this scramble mail is to read it with "view page source"
in Netscape browser.

Regards,
Kannika

No Windows 98 but the run time error is linked to the speed (800 + mz)

The Future of Epi Info looks interesting! I'd like to add to the discussion.

>As the PC community will change over to Win ME and
>its next ver in 2-3 years time

Personally, I have a problem with predictions like this.

Will we "change over to Win ME and its next version"?
Will we use [GNU/]Linux or other "free/open source" operating systems?
Will we be using something different?
A mixture of the above and more?
And then what?

TWO ELEMENTS OF OPENNESS:

Some people in the free/open source arena suggest that the
main thing is to keep two things "open":
- data formats, and
- the source of the programs.

OPEN DATA FORMATS:

EI6 data format is open enough.

Personally, I like "text" formats that can be processed in a "piped"
way. I can even process "these", "files" with Basic !
I haven't tried awk or other scripting languages.
Are binary formats a problem when porting to other operating
environments? To different languages?

(Open doesn't mean you can't add a layer of encryption.)

What are the limitations of this .REC format?
Why was the change to the EI2K data format desirable?
What other "possibilities" should we take into account when thinking
about data formats?
Maybe the future is in XML?
Could EpiInfo have plug-ins for dealing with other data formats?

Could we discuss this openly? Is it any use at all?

OPEN SOURCE / FREE SOFTWARE:

I asked a couple of years ago if the source of EI6 could be released
as "free software", perhaps under a GPL or LGPL license.
Apparently, it can't be done because EpiInfo6 source code links to
some closed-source libraries.

How many libraries?
Can they be replaced with open-source libraries?
Can any one have a look at the source, possibly with a non-disclosure
agreement if need be, and write or pay for "open" alternatives?
(Yes, you can pay a programmer to write code that is then "free" as in
"free speech".
The "free" in "free software" doesn't always mean "free as in free beer".)
Is this feasible and reasonable?

For example, I would have liked to add a function in ANALYSIS.EXE
(or in analysis.pas if it is written in Pascal) to compute the MEDIAN of
a few data items.
I can't program in Pascal, but I would have asked for it and maybe
some people would have done it - or I might have micro-payed for it
together with others.
Or I would have suggested some computer science students to write
that as an end-of-term paper, etc.

The vision of EpiInfo-software, it's usefulness, should be kept.
It may be a matter of leading the developement of software, not of
doing it all yourself.

Are we in time to "open" EpiData?
Or does it also depend on "closed source" libraries?
Or is it undesirable for other reasons that I don't yet see?

PROGRAMS THAT NEED TO BE PORTED:

Mark Myatt suggests that what we need for an EI7Win (/EI7Linux/EI7etc?)
is mainly ANALYSIS. And REPORT is a huge part of that. I agree fully.

With the new Pascal compilers I've heard there shouldn't be much
problem, but I'm not an expert at all. I would expect interest and action
in making things easy for recompilation for other platforms.

Could we have Epi6 for Linux? (Even "just recompiled", closed-source?)

I would add EpiMap for Windows (?) - with a strong emphasis in "open"
(data formats and program code) as something badly needed.

Perhaps an independent EpiGlue - if it can be made independent (by
CDC or, if it is too much hassle and it can be done, by others?).

btw: can someone point us to other software that can be used to generate
the maps and graphs from our .REC files, automatically, from within a
surveillance system? Any "good links" page?

Maybe some other things?

(I don't want to dream now of "cooperation software" which is something
general; or perhaps there are some specifics to Public Health? This would
be another thread altogether.)

Dear all,
I've a PIII 866 Mhz processor (with windows 98) and  ENTER didn't work on
my PC.  I've installed moslo.com  in the "windows\command\" directory. In
the alias of epi6, I've replaced the line
C:\EPI6FR\EPI6.EXE
by the line
moslo.com /20 C:\EPI6FR\EPI6.EXE
and now I can use ENTER.
Thank you very much for this program !

Don't worry ... we will have relational data-entry soon.

My understanding is that the boot to MSDOS feature has been removed (it
can be hacked back if you need it) but the MSDOS command prompt in a
window is still there.

For a replacement for Statalc try EpiCalc:

I don't think that this is an issue. They can release the code that they
have the rights to and just tell us what libraries are required. Linux
(e.g.) is open-source but the common windowing bit (KDE) uses non-open
source libraries.

In all this nice discussion on the future of EpiInfo I think that
everybody forgot something, there are lots of Macs around there!!.
Besides many University prof or epidemiologists or biostats who
work with large data sets from surveys, normally use workstations,
not PC's either IBM Riscs or Suns etc.
So A nice Epi program must be available in all platforms in basically
the same structure. This means it must be programmed in one of the
basic languages C- Fortran or the modern multiplatform ones like
Python or Java.
Which modules we need?
a - data entry : Can ENTER/ENTERX be translated to one of the
above programs and put in the public domain under GNU-GPL
license. The same for EpiData?
b- data analysis . I think that R is public domain, works in all
platforms and can be used for all, almost, statistical analysis. Mark
has a proto function that reads epi.REC files, so it can be used
almost directly.
c- data plotting . Also R shines here
d- data reporting . Well here there are many options from an
integrated word processor to a complex one that needs cut and
paste. WordPad comes to mind as a nice word processor with
dictionaries in 10 languages.
e- very complex data handling . Instead of using Microsoft windows
only software I would prefer moving towards the GNU programs or to
SunOffice95 which is a ,close, clone to MSOffice95 with clones of
Word, Excell, Access and is also source free.
.
If Epi-Info wants to have a bright future, it will have a future none the
less. I think it should move into being a simple central core that
integrates several different programs that are very good at what they
do instead of being a huge complex 'I do everything' machine that
will take ages to debug.
Also the cross platform in virtually similar forms is a must.
just my 5 cents

Hallo,
there were some people who had problems with their grids in Analyze. I
experienced the same (variables were missing) till I READ and RELATED the
tables and not the views (parent and grid). Up to now I related and analyzed
one parent table and three grids at the same time and had no problems there.
To change the field name and order of collums or any other parameter of a
grid you have to use VISUALIZE DATA and make the changes there (with edit and
update).

Hi -
I mentioned earlier that I'm having problemns with Epi6 Enter on
twodifferent computers.  I reinstalled it on the computer that was giving me
a "runtime error 200 at 29E5:11BD".  I'm still getting the same error. When
trying to open the Enter program with Epi 6.04b, yields "runtime error 200
at 29E2:11BD".  After the upgrade to 6.04c, yileds "runtime error 200 at
29E5:11BD".
I haven't reinstalled it yet on the other computer.  Any suggestions???

Hello Robert!

Thank you for your indication of MOSLO!

problens, in a Pentium III 500, 128Mb.

A little modification in epi6.mnu adjusts for "automatic" start of EpiNut=20
with MOSLO.

Finaly a simple solution for the long time problem to run EpiNut in a very=

fast machines.

Thanks!

I'm using Windows ME and (both) epi6.04 and Epi 2K, still without troubles

Heemskerk  02/03/2001

To all EPI-INFO lovers  and believers,

In the enthousiast debate about EPIINFO's possible future I am
missing this aspect:
 We all are dealing with data consisting of characters and digits,
our data are stored as such and when we work with it we are just
managing these characters and digits.
 It is much more efficient for this work, in my opinion, to have
programs producing their output in a text-oriented screen, a so
called console screen.
Skipping the huge overhead load needed to make a graphical
display of the results  makes it faster,and better readable
 too.
When A. DEAN conducted a survey a few years ago asking our
opinion about going into a 32bit program for the succesor of
ANALYSIS etc,it was natural to decide to go ahead with it.The team
in ATLANTA started to try to make a GRAPHICAL program suite
but this turned out to be much more complicated than foreseen.

In WINDOWS though it is possible also to create consoleprograms,
with text oriented output,they very much have the look of DOS
programs but they really are 32bit programs.In these mousing is
possible as well.
A very nice example of this is: FileControl for Windows, this works
very much like Norton Commander.
I have no knowledge whether this can be done in VB6, it certanly
can be done in Delphi and with the FreePascal32 compiler which is
available now.
Could the team in Atlanta consider to make an ANALYSIS.EXE in
console format?Or would they be  willing to release the sources as
far as they can under a GNU licence so that others can try to
achieve this?
Yours, Louk Meertens.

I agree regarding typing versus "mousing". I prefer the keyboard.

On the other hand, I very much liked the graphical display, in EI2K,
of the 2x2 table vanilla ill. After years of 2x2 tables this looked like
a most pleasant surprise!

Made me wonder what other things we take for granted that
we shouldn't.

Maybe "going the Windows way" is not the most important innovation
we can think of? (I'm not saying it's not important. It is important.)

Just as an example, I've read there are "ascii cams": cameras that
take pictures as rectangles of ascii characters - this may mean much
simpler devices, good enough for some purposes.

Of course, most ideas will be discarded - once we've had them.
But if someone wants to think laterally about it, please invite!

Both are written in Pascal. We expect a version of Delphi for Linux to
be available soon (Borland are advertising 'real soon now' in Dr Dobbs
&c.). EpiData should be easy to do as it is a Delphi based program.

As far as going GPL with it ... The team line, at the moment, is that we
will not release source code just yet but when we close the project we
will make source code available to interested parties at no cost. This
may, in time, translate to release under the GPL.

I am sceptical about translation to JAVA, PYTHON, RUBY, &c. As these are
interpreted scripting languages and will be rather slow. The alternative
is to put a Java shell around a cross platform DBMS such as MySQL.

I keep meaning to get cracking on porting EpiInfo style functions to R
but something always seems to get in the way. I am making slow progress.
What we really want for R is to add native .REC file access (i.e read
the .REC file and then look in the .CHK file for labels &c.). I have
contacted the R core team about this and they have yet to get back to
me.

>c- data plotting . Also R shines here

It is the best but not the easiest. What R needs for it to be a good
EpiInfo style analysis program is an equivalent of the REPORT command.

Everyone has a wordprocessor ... theer are many free ones and as you
point out below StarOffice is now open source.

'Clone' is the wrong word but StarOffice can do the things that Word,
Excel, Access, Powerpoint, FrontPage, PhotoShop (limited), Visio
(limited) can do. I have moved from Office '95 to StarOffice 5.2 and am
happy to have done so.

That is what we thought with EpiData ... EpiInfo does great data-entry
so let's port that to Windows ... EpiInfo is not a great data-analysis
package (I love 2by2 tables, REPORT, and it's ease of use but it is
pretty limited) so leave that to another package.

I'm with you.

Wonderful comments, Diane. EI2K seems to have missed the mark when it
mistakenly thought that size no longer mattered -- size matters in both data
file size and program size. Do we band together to take concerted action, or
do we sit passivly while EI2K flounders? Bud Gerstman

Does anyone have .CHK code that will calculate a p-value from a chi-square
value?  I wrote one that will do Z or Chi square with 1 degree of freedom
(which can use the Z routine by taking the square root of the chi square
value), but not a general routine that allows for different degrees of freedom.
                Thanks,
                        Kevin

Have you considered using the "Known Chisquare2 value" function under
'probability' in the Epitable program?

My personal reactions to Mark's relevant and insightful comments:

> EpiInfo 2000 does not work.

In my experience, EpiInfo 2000 works, but just barely.

> To get EpiInfo 2000 to work will require a lot of time, money, and
> effort.

. . . To get Epi Info 2000 to work *for most users* will require a lot of
time . . .

> When (if) EpiInfo 2000 does work it will not be "EpiInfo" but something
> completely different bearing the name "EpiInfo".

. . . which might be OK in the future, but not for now . . .

. . . but it might eventually run on Win2000+ machines

. . . or CDC should devote a significant portion of its resources to the
EI7W port, while maintaining EI2K developments in the background  . . .

Well done.

EpiCalc lacks some of the exact procedures available in EpiTable (e.g.,
exact binomial probabilities), but it is a useful replacement, nonetheless .
. .

Concur.

I would take this one step further. From my considerable distance, it seems
as if the most cost-effective solution would be for CDC to provide a grant
to Mark and Jens for the immediate development of EI7W. Epi Info 2000 is
years, maybe decades away from functionality for most users -- it's too big,
too slow, too complicated, and too buggy for routine use. The last two
problems are solvable in relatively short order (months to years), given
proper funding and attention. The first two problems (too big, too slow)
will only work themselves outs as hardware infrastructure evolves (e.g.,
faster connections, bigger "floppies"), which may be years (decades?) away.
In the meantime, Epi Info risks loosing its loyal and mostly nontechnical
user-base.

Enough said.

Robert,

Thank you for your comments. Clearly we should be patient, for software
development does take time. However, my opinion is that Epi Info may have
overshot the mark by as much as a decade. This left an unacceptable gap
that, despite the belief of some, Epi6 cannot fill. That's my tuppence,
anyway.

Subject:      epi info after 6; views of a developer in the field
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=koi8-r
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

I've been reading this thread for some time now.  I've worked with Epi
Info abroad a fair bit and am leading translation of EI2000 into
Russian.  There are a couple of axes I would like to comment on:

First, though, I want to go on record as thinking the world of Andy
Dean and company for their work.  Apart from some notable exceptions
(the EpiData group), few appreciate how difficult software is to
develop, particularly for non-technical user bases.  I'm imagining how
I would feel if I worked like crazy for years, trying to re-invent a
great program and take advantage of some of the latest Microsoft
technologies and then have everyone start calling for a post-natal
abortion of my product.  Not great.  I appreciate what the team has
done, really great work that would have cost a lot more money to make
in the private sector.
that said,

1) there are at least two types of users of EI: developers and end-user
non-technical practical epidemiologists.  What's convenient for one is
often inconvenient for others.  The community needs to decide which is
more important.  In my experience, end-users bootstrapping their way
into EI lose a lot of time and effort in endlessly chasing the
technical peculiarities of REC/CHK, etc.    When I was learning EI6 a
few years back, I finally just wrote some Java code that used a
relational database to build all the required flat files for EI to
work.  Otherwise, the architecture was just too much of a hassle to
update.  The move toward windows, embodied in EI2000 for now, makes it
harder to use flat files to configure databases, and I think that is a
problem.  I would ask any developers to please keep the GUI as
separate from the specifications as possible and to allow
configuration externally, probably through the use of flat files or
some other straightforward format.  When I build SQL databases, I use
specification files that are flat: I would strive to do that with
EI2000/7, whatever.   That is a developer speaking.

2)an advantage to EpiData is that while it provides a Windows
interface it retains the flat file structure, so that my scripts and
relational databases can still be used to specify EI databases.  I
would strive to incorporate that into the initial windows port.

3) data acquisition and analysis are distinct.  I think many people
find data acquisition the harder part and would support the EpiData
decision to start with that aspect.  Most people have access to some
other analysis tool, in my experience, and to do the fancy stuff, most
people just go to SAS or equivalents.  The real charm of ANALYSIS.EXE
is its simplicity.  It does the most important analyses simply and
straightforwardly.  It does a messy job of updating data structures,
but then again SQL isn't that great without a lot of extra coding
either.

4) i think a winning long-term strategy would be development of a
richer API than the current PGM approach released as libraries,
initially DLLs, but ideally relatively portable libraries that could
be implemented in many different ways.  There are times I would kill
for a bit of ANALYSIS implemented as a Java class for some server side
application I'm working on.  This leads me to my fifth point.

5) of all places where open source should succeed, it's in public
health.  it's a bunch of people who like data who are working for the
common good.  Few public health-oriented organizations are for profit,
let
alone publicly traded, eliminating some of the major obstacles to
implementation of open source collaboration.  There are many tools to
aid open source development teams, including manuals, concurrent
versioning systems, web servers, a whole community of smart,
semi-deviant gen-Xers who might be interested in contributing to the
public's health who could be tapped.  There is a Linux bent there, but
a) Linux itself is free, b) Mexico and China have begun
implementation, c) linux is massively better at security, and public
health data is often confidential d) Linux runs beautifully on older
computers, and at
the end of the day many open source projects are ported to various
architectures.  This would force windows development to not be tied so
intimately to Windows APIs, but many developers share my view that
windows is a positive nightmare that survives for business (monopoly)
rather than technical reasons.

6) DOS has to go.  We all know this I think, but at least
internationally the major problem is that DOS was never designed to
handle other languages and does so only very begrudginly.  for
instance, ANALYSIS consistently converts certain high-ASCII russian
letters, making program output a little ridiculous.  Plus I have to
auto-convert everything I write from windows into DOS encoding for
initial use.
   My users moan and complain about DOS all the time.  They hate it.
   I can't get them to use it.  I hate it too.   We need an EI7.

To summarize:
Andy Dean and colleagues have done a great job over the
years and are to be lauded for their effort.

I think Epi Info AND EpiData should go open source, under the GPL (or
LGPL or whatever).  The GPL is designed to
prevent commercial exploitation of people's work.

In the immediate future, I agree with Bud that CDC should consider a
cooperative agreement with EpiData development team to do a quick port
of EI6 to EI7.  There is a need for it now, and I would be glad to
have my tax dollars spent for that (as if I have any say...).  The
major reason to do it out-of-house is to preserve CDC's resources for
continued work on EI2000.

EI2000 development should continue.  I think Bud's estimate of a decade
is extreme.  I would expect EI2000 to be useful in a couple of years,
PARTICULARLY if it defines a data-transport format, which would allow
one to dump data to say an SQL-specification and a delimited file.
That would take a couple developer-weeks at the outside and would
answer all this grumpiness about floppy disk capacity.

I would wait for "web" versions.  Frankly, I would never use EI for
web applications.  That's what a host of other free packages are very
good at.  I would much rather use PHP-SQL/RDBMS or JSP (or if you
like microsoft ASP) and then dump the data to an analysis program.
Others might want to, but I think that's a later application.  In any
case, taking a modular, library-based approach will prepare you to do
that when the time comes.

I don't want to offend anyone, but it might even be worthwhile
bringing in a top-notch expensive software architect from industry to
assist with
modularity improvements.

I have gone on way too long.  This will be my only contribution to
this thread, so feel free to amortize it over the rest of the thread.

Hi, Everybody,
This is a follow-up to my initial suggestion for a message board last month. Thanks for your comments and suggestions. I have developed a series of 21 web-based message boards called "Epi Forums - Message Boards for Epidemiologists).
You can post your questions (Help Me Boards), your tricks, examples, etc. (Show Me Boards), and your reports of solutions that work (Problems/Solutions and Hardware/Software Boards). Postings stay up for 6 months and can be viewed by anyone visiting the messages. You can even search through the postings! This is the best message board service I found on the Net to fit what people said they wanted to see for a message board.

If you want to post something, you have to register (no big deal, easy to do, required by the company providing the space and services).

I have organized the boards by software (Epi Info 6, Epi Info 2000 and EpiData). These boards should provide a structure is "self-organizing" intuitively useful (I hope) to those looking for answers and solutions.
I created this structure based on wish lists posted on this listserv. Perhaps FAQs can be harvested from these postings....

I can always modify per users' suggestions. Please try them out and let me know what you think.

Get to the guidelines page and message boards at:

This thread is worthwhile precisely because:

Developers are speaking their minds in the open. From a user's
point of view it looks very good - even if we can't follow or help.

Maybe the EpiInfo team is considering the creation of an
epi-info-devel@listserv.cdc.gov, separate from a users' list?
Or perhaps is there such a list already?

We can always subscribe to both.

Epi info 6.04 is really doing good job on our old 386 machines. For my =

Subject: [EPI-INFO] Future of Epi info

A user's viewpoint -
Epi info ver 5 and 6 have been with us for a decade. We have been hoping of
an upgrade in the near future. All of us users know that Epi info really
became usable only after ver 5 onwards. We are seeing the similar teething
problems with Epi info 2000. Very few among us have jumped into the
bandwagon. This new release needs time to settle the bugs. I am not a
technical person. However being a user I have two humble suggestions-
1. An upgrade of Epi info 6.04 (written in turbo pascal) should be developed
in windows version. Many friends have named it EI7 for windows. This should
be developed fast.
2. Epi info 2000 can be a another software with enhanced features. This can
be developed subsequently.

Frankly it is not convenient to use one software for data entry, another for
analysis and a third one for printing the formatted reports.
Andy Dean and his team did a marvelous job all these  years, single
handedly. They need our support in whatever form it can be.

Epi info 6.04 is really doing good job on our old 386 machines. For my field
work it has lot of good features. I want this legacy to remain alive and
prosper. I request Andy Dean to let us know the current status of
development of the next upgrades.

Once again I extend my full support to the Epi info Developer Team at CDC.

 Yours Sincerely,

Dear colleagues;

We realize that the topic of release of source code for Epi Info 6 is an
important issue for many subscribers of this list. We would like to clarify
some of the issues and misperceptions surrounding this topic. A major
portion of the source code for Epi Info 6 is public domain, and as such is
available to the public. We have, in the past, provided the source code to
those that have requested it. However, there are several commercial source
libraries that require licensing from their producers, and these cannot be
released. Some of these modules are no longer produced and therefore are no
longer available. We would welcome any suggestions from the user community
on how to best go about putting the source code into the user community.
Please feel free to contact either Andy Dean (AGD1@cdc.gov) or myself
(syoon@cdc.gov), or to this list.

Shalom

I don't work alut with epiifo but  the algorithm should look like that

 1.  mark the zip codes you need in the your rec file .
 2. sort the your rec file by zip code and any other key needed ( may be street
)
 3. save the sorted file to new rec file
 4. use the process command to loop through the file .
 5 when ever the process get to a maeked record use the type command to output
all the data(vriable) you need
   for that line and the 15 after it .  you can use define global to count the
15 line needed .
 6. direct the output of the type command to a new file  using the route
file-name command .

Hi, EpiInfoers!

Just let me think aloud, briefly.

I like this list. We might be able to build something even nicer for all.

The aims here would be to have:
- a way for any of us to retrieve answers to common repeated questions.
- an easy way to add to that Q&A repository.
- still keep the current list's benefits: a "place" that's open and dynamic.
(I can't think of more goals or constraints - please add any you can think
of.)

(Yes, I can think of two more "wild dreams":
- perhaps some would want to add "tricks" that have never been asked for.
- perhaps in a "goal oriented environment" we would create routines colla-
boratively, and reuse software, etc.
These wild dreams should not stop us grabbing the practical fruit of the
station, so to speak.)

The methods suggested would be:
- keep the list as is, and re-ask re-questions re-peatedly. This would mean
no changes from the present situation.
- keep a FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) document somewhere. This
would mean that someone(s) would have to keep every single message,
convert them into some Q&A simple format, and upload the updated FAQ.
This takes the mind of a librarian of sorts, I guess - the kind of job most
people like seeing done by others.
(Possibly, the EpiInfo programmers would like to copy the current FAQ
into the current epi*.zip, or link to it from the epiinfo webpages.)
- use a message board (first alternative): keep the epi-info list too. I.e.,
have both this list and a message board. People would have to be in both
places or only in one. Information from the list would also have to be
trans-
fered to the other. Or I understood this idea wrongly.
- use a message board (second alternative): we all "move" to the message
board and abandon the epiinfo list. This would mean all the hassle of
"moving". The benefits should be very clear in advance.
- keep the list and add some software that allows people to search the
old messages. I have seen this done in at least a Linux user group in
Spanish, so it can be done. If it's interesting, I can link the epi-info
team,
or some other group from this list, to the Linux experts.
- I'm not sure if we could use some kind of wiki pages so that the
load of updating the FAQ would be shared,
- or perhaps a weblog of some sort (?).
- any other ways? Do others have different experiences to share, even
in draft form?

I think it would be good to collect some more *alternatives* first, and then
try to think of the *benefits, hassle and limitations* of each.

What do you think?

Relatively Easy:

Sort by zip code and calculate a variable which is 1+the value of the  same
variable in the previous case until that counter has the value 15. Reset
that variable to 0 when you have a case. Copy the id number of the case to
those who are counted up to 15. Then you have a unit consisting of the id
for the cases plus the 15 controls having the same "match-id".

This is easily done in stata (or some other language which can calculate
across observations), something like this (do some testing before it works):
   sort zip
   gen number = _n         /* the sequence of observations */
   gen count = 0 if (case)
   replace caseset = caseset[_n-1] +1 if (case)
   gen caseset = 1 in 1
   replace caseset = caseset[_n-1] if number > 1

   gen count = count[_n-1]+1 if count[_n-1] <> 0
   replace count = . if count > 15

It looks easy to find the 15 possible controls, but some problems arise:
What do you do when two cases are in the same zip code. Should a control be
eligible to more than one case. Is some other characteristic related to the
order of the zip codes, eg. social class, income .....

I made a small example which works in epidata 1.5 (to be released within
the next few days, at the latest on monday 27th.).

I think the principle could be adapted to epiinfo v6 also

We are using the following flavours of the command "Type " in epidata,
replacing type, codes and codefield commands:

Type "text"
    will just type the text on screen
Type Comment
    will type the text corresponding to the comment legal definition.
Type comment fieldname
    will take the text from a defined comment legal and put the text
    value into the field called fieldname.

Whereas

Type statusbar
    will do as type comment except that the information
    is put on the statusbar.

Now back to the example from 21st of febr.:

Subject: Epi6 Non code answer in coded field

qes file:
v1 Numeric Field ##
v2 Coded field ___________________
v3 Another Numeric Field ##

The idea is to let you write a text in v2 if a code explanation is not
existing. Here I defined codes for values 1-4 and these are with the
command "type comment v2" put into v2. But for values from 5+ one has to
write the codetext in v2.

chk file:
V1
  RANGE 1 99
  COMMENT LEGAL
    1  yes
    2  no
    3  text
    4  text2
  END
  TYPE COMMENT V2
  AFTER ENTRY
    IF v1 > 4 THEN
      GOTO V2
    ELSE
      GOTO V3
    ENDIF
  END
END

For those of you who are trying to unsubscribe to the EPI-INFO listserve,
this may help:

You  may leave  the list at any time by sending a "SIGNOFF  EPI-INFO"
command to LISTSERV@LISTSERV.CDC.GOV <mailto:LISTSERV@LISTSERV.CDC.GOV> .
More details on working with the EPI-INFO list serve are included below.

Subject:        You are now subscribed to the EPI-INFO list

Your subscription  to the EPI-INFO  list (Epi Info Discussion  Group) has
been accepted.
Please save this message for future  reference, especially if this is the
first time you are subscribing to an electronic mailing list. If you ever
need to leave  the list, you will find the  necessary instructions below.
Perhaps  more importantly,  saving a  copy of  this message  (and of  all
future subscription notices  from other mailing lists) in  a special mail
folder will give you instant access to the list of mailing lists that you
are subscribed  to. This may  prove very useful the  next time you  go on
vacation and  need to leave  the lists temporarily so  as not to  fill up
your  mailbox while  you  are away!  You should  also  save the  "welcome
messages" from the  list owners that you will  occasionally receive after
subscribing to a new list.
To send  a message to  all the people  currently subscribed to  the list,
just send mail to EPI-INFO@LISTSERV.CDC.GOV
<mailto:EPI-INFO@LISTSERV.CDC.GOV> . This is called "sending mail to the
list," because  you send  mail to a  single address  and LISTSERV makes
copies  for all  the  people  who  have subscribed.  This  address
(EPI-INFO@LISTSERV.CDC.GOV <mailto:EPI-INFO@LISTSERV.CDC.GOV> ) is  also
called the "list  address." You must never try to send any command to that
address, as it would be distributed to all the people  who have subscribed.
All commands must  be sent to the "LISTSERV address,"
LISTSERV@LISTSERV.CDC.GOV <mailto:LISTSERV@LISTSERV.CDC.GOV> . It  is very
important to understand  the difference  between the  two, but  fortunately
it  is not complicated. The LISTSERV address is like  a FAX number that
connects you to  a machine,  whereas the  list  address is  like a  normal
voice  line connecting you to a person. If you make a mistake and dial the
FAX number when you wanted to talk to someone on the phone, you will quickly
realize that you  used the wrong  number and call again.  No harm will  have
been done. If on the other hand  you accidentally make your FAX call
someone's voice  line,  the  person  receiving the  call  will  be
inconvenienced, especially if your FAX then re-dials  every 5 minutes. The
fact that most people will eventually connect the FAX machine to the voice
line to allow the FAX  to go through  and make  the calls stop  does not
mean  that you should continue to send FAXes to  the voice number. People
would just get mad at you.  It works pretty much  the same way with  mailing
lists, with the difference  that you are calling  hundreds or thousands of
people at the same  time, and consequently  you can expect a  lot of people
to get upset if you consistently send commands to the list address.
You  may leave  the list  at  any time  by sending  a "SIGNOFF  EPI-INFO"
command to LISTSERV@LISTSERV.CDC.GOV <mailto:LISTSERV@LISTSERV.CDC.GOV> .
You can  also tell LISTSERV how you want it to confirm  the receipt of
messages you send to  the list. If you do not trust the system, send a "SET
EPI-INFO REPRO" command and LISTSERV will send you a  copy of your own
messages, so that you  can see that the message was distributed and did not
get damaged on the way. After a while you  may find  that this  is getting
annoying, especially  if your  mail program does not  tell you that the
message is from you  when it informs you that new mail has arrived from
EPI-INFO. If you send a "SET EPI-INFO ACK  NOREPRO" command,  LISTSERV will
mail you  a short  acknowledgement instead, which will  look different in
your mailbox  directory. With most mail programs you  will know immediately
that this  is an acknowledgement you can read later. Finally, you can turn
off acknowledgements completely with "SET EPI-INFO NOACK NOREPRO".
Following  instructions from  the list  owner, your  subscription options
have  been  set to  "SUBJECTHDR  MIME"  rather  than the  usual  LISTSERV
defaults. For more information about  subscription options, send a "QUERY
EPI-INFO" command to LISTSERV@LISTSERV.CDC.GOV
<mailto:LISTSERV@LISTSERV.CDC.GOV> .
Contributions sent to this list are automatically archived. You can get a
list  of the  available  archive  files by  sending  an "INDEX  EPI-INFO"
command to LISTSERV@LISTSERV.CDC.GOV <mailto:LISTSERV@LISTSERV.CDC.GOV> .
You can then order these files with a "GET  EPI-INFO LOGxxxx"  command, or
using LISTSERV's  database search facilities. Send an  "INFO DATABASE"

I had always hoped that the CDC Epi Info crew would catalogue FAQs and
provide example .QES/.REC/.CHK files, example .PGM files, and other example
files on their website.  It would seem like the Epi Info support group
would also have some sort of computerized data base on FAQs.  There do have
an FAQ for Epi 6 and Epi 2000 on the CDC, but there are few and these
appear to be rarely (if ever) updated.  Because CDC group has not performed
this task, I would be behind anyone willing to do this.  The CDC group has
a lot on their plate in fixing Epi Info 2000 bugs and many other
development chores needed for the program as well as making the final DOS
version of Epi Info.  Having a website with work-arounds, examples, and
FAQs would help the Epi Info list serve, because if the issue has been
brought up before, they could just be referred to the message board.

For those of you who are trying to unsubscribe to the EPI-INFO listserve,
this may help:

You  may leave  the list at any time by sending a "SIGNOFF  EPI-INFO"
command to LISTSERV@LISTSERV.CDC.GOV <mailto:LISTSERV@LISTSERV.CDC.GOV> .
More details on working with the EPI-INFO list serve are included below.

Please save this message for future  reference, especially if this is the
first time you are subscribing to an electronic mailing list. If you ever
need to leave  the list, you will find the  necessary instructions below.
Perhaps  more importantly,  saving a  copy of  this message  (and of  all
future subscription notices  from other mailing lists) in  a special mail
folder will give you instant access to the list of mailing lists that you
are subscribed  to.=20
<snip>
To send  a message to  all the people  currently subscribed to  the list,
just send mail to EPI-INFO@LISTSERV.CDC.GOV=20
<snip>
You must never try to send any command to that
address, as it would be distributed to all the people  who have subscribed.=

All commands must  be sent to the "LISTSERV address,"
LISTSERV@LISTSERV.CDC.GOV=20
<snip>
You  may leave  the list  at  any time  by sending  a "SIGNOFF  EPI-INFO"
command to LISTSERV@LISTSERV.CDC.GOV <
<snip>
For more information about  subscription options, send a "QUERY
EPI-INFO" command to LISTSERV@LISTSERV.CDC.GOV=20

Contributions sent to this list are automatically archived. You can get a
list  of the  available  archive  files by  sending  an "INDEX  EPI-INFO"
command to LISTSERV@LISTSERV.CDC.GOV=20

You can then order these files with a "GET  EPI-INFO LOGxxxx"  command, or
using LISTSERV's  database search facilities. Send an  "INFO DATABASE"
command for more  information on the latter.
This  list is  available  in digest  form.  If you  wish  to receive  the

I prefer the option suggested by Kevin Sullivan more than a board. I use
my email easily.

We could compile a FAQ, and the CDC team could put it on the page.
My proposal is that someone prepare a list of, say, ten topics treated
in the last month each volunteer compile one and send to epiinfo webmanager.

<P>Dear discussion group, allow me to suggest a voluntary action by members of the group:&nbsp;&nbsp; </P>
<P>I hope that the CDC team or someone else gathered all the group discussions on a server. So we should ask the CDC team to put it all (with the e mail titles)&nbsp;on a web site.&nbsp;&nbsp;People who are interested will download&nbsp;(copy) certain quantities of e mails by topic, whenever we have some extra free hours once a month or so.&nbsp; Then to edit it according to an agreed FAQ style, and send it back to the CDC site. Names and addresses of people who raised the questions and those who gave the answers should be quoted, for further direct discussions. &nbsp;&nbsp;Later the CDC people will put those FAQ into the Epi6/Epi2000 sites and manuals.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; I am ready to take active part.&nbsp; A shared effort will succeed.</P>

There would probably be a need to set up a website outside of CDC.  Because
CDC is a governmental agency, they have a lot of limitations on what can be
placed on their website and the timeliness of information due to the
bureaucracy.  They could link to a site, but to place things on an official
US Government website is not straightforward and time consuming.  I have
always thought it would be great if there was a separate website where
people could place example files.  The downside is that it would probably
be a time-consuming task for someone to organize everything.

Subject:      Permanent Dates in EPI6
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

Hi Everyone,

First I would just like to say that I think it's a great idea to have
our discussions on a group server and then edit it to a FAQ style. I am
not sure how we would go about it, but I definately agree with it.

I am hoping that once again that someone out there can help me out with
a question that I have. I have a a date variable where I have assigned
the year as permanent (1992) in Epi6. This works very well, however once
I've entered the data and I require to go back and make changes when I
go past the date variable it changes back to "01/01/1992".

Below is what I wrote in my .chk file for my date variable. What can I
do so that the date doesn't change if I want to go back and change other
data?

date
before entry
date= "01/01/1992"
end
after entry
if date[7,4] <> "1992" then
type "Year reset to 1992" +10 +0
date=date[1,6]  +  "1992"
endif
end
end

thanks for the help in advance!

Sarah

I also have another question that I had asked earlier on and did not get
the kind of response that i had expected as well as that I undertsood. I
wanted to make a combo box in Epi6 so that the person entering could
merely select their entry choice from a  list (without having to type)
or enter their response if it was not provided on the list.
Is it possible to do this and if so could someone please walk me through
it step by step?

thanks so much!

Sarah:

I looked at Jens' response again and it looks like a good one, but ther=
e is no
easy way to do this in Epi6.

Perhaps something that can go on the wish list for EpiData, Jens!

I see the process like this:

You are entering in data1.rec with the following in data1.chk for varia=
ble combo
You have a .rec file called combcode.rec that contains all the codes an=
d their
'comment legal' meanings
When you find a code that isn't in combcode, you must:
- save what you have already entered of the current record and then exi=
t from
ENTER
- use ENTER to add the new code and its meaning to COMBCODE.REC and the=
n exit
from ENTER again
- start up ENTER once again, this time on data1.rec; go to the last rec=
ord in
data1.rec and continue entering data, starting with the COMBO variable.=
 Now the
drop-down list will show the new code

I don't think you can automate this process in Epi6, but some of the me=
nu
wizards out there might know a way. (SEE final comment below)
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D
Here is a sample of what you put into data1.chk
COMBO
  COMMENT LEGAL combcode.rec
END

The .rec file combcode.rec is where you keep all your codes. It needs o=
nly two
fields like COMBO and COMBTEXT that have your codes and their meanings.=

You need a file combcode.chk that includes

COMBO
  KEY
END
COMBTEXT
 KEY
END

COMBTEXT can be long (up to max you can fit on a screen) and guess what=
 - you
can see more than 16 characters of the text when you press F9!

This also works for using CODEFIELD (example is attached as .qes, .chk,=
 and .rec
files). For this to work, you must first use ENTER to look at COMBCODE,=
 as this
will make the necessary index files.
(See attached file: combcode.chk)(See attached file: combcode.qes)(See =
attached
file: Combcode.rec)
(See attached file: Trycombo.rec)(See attached file: trycombo.qes)(See =
attached
file: trycombo.chk)

Files I sent are:

combcode.qes/.chk/.rec - as described above, but using CODES and CODEFI=
ELD
trycombo.qes/.chk/.rec - sample file for using combcode

For the brave at heart:

ENTER is pretty rigid (by design) when it starts working on a file and =
it must
know and keep in memory all the codes that it uses. But it seems to loa=
d the
codes only when you get to the rec file. If you are brave enough to hav=
e two DOS
windows open at the same time, you can actually do this when you find a=
 new
code:
- switch to your 2nd DOS window, that has the EPI6 main menu running
- start up ENTER and load combcode.rec
- add the new record and exit from ENTER
- return to your data entry; you will have to move the cursor out of th=
e field
COMBO and then back in, using the arrow keys. Now the new code appears!=

I also have another question that I had asked earlier on and did not get
the kind of response that i had expected as well as that I undertsood. I
wanted to make a combo box in Epi6 so that the person entering could
merely select their entry choice from a  list (without having to type)
or enter their response if it was not provided on the list.
Is it possible to do this and if so could someone please walk me through
it step by step?

thanks so much!

Hola!

> There would probably be a need to set up a website outside of CDC.  Because
We have an epiinfo page. The spanish epiinfo page, were thes
translations of EpiInfo6/2000 are located. We maintain it and we are
free of including what we decide.
www.cica.es/epiinfo is located in an important server that gives
internet especialized services to the universities of Andalucia (8
Universities). We offer our help very pleased, and i am sure our
internet hoster are more pleased too.

but,

a FAQ is only a FAQ and what we could do as epiinfo-users is help to
develop the FAQ of the CDC home page, perhaps Epi-team could say the
help they want or suggest. Probably you know very wll the team and what
you say is because you know the problem.

I'm using EPI-INFO 6 on a PC running Windows 2000.  I'm not a frequent user
so I hope my question is clear.

I received the error message above (error 202 - stack overflow) when I
tried to define a new variable with an IF - THEN statement.  The new
variable is defined as "yes" if any of 40 fields is "yes" and "no"
otherwise.  The error then throws me out of ANALYSIS.

I did use the "/" sign in my statement.

Any thoughts on what I should to do correct the error?  Please
advise.  Many thanks...catherine

The "/" sign is used in Epi Info for division. The stack overflow message
is usually received when you try to divide illegally (such as dividing by
zero or by a text variable).  Try rewriting the program again without the
"/" sign. It may take some experimenting before you get the syntax correct.
There is an on-line manual on the main menu which should have an example
how to write the if-then statement.

tried to define a new variable with an IF - THEN statement.  The new
variable is defined as "yes" if any of 40 fields is "yes" and "no"
otherwise.  The error then throws me out of ANALYSIS.

I did use the "/" sign in my statement.

Any thoughts on what I should to do correct the error?  Please
advise.  Many thanks...catherine

Hi Catherine,

I think that your problem is that you have a very long IF THEN statement to=
=20
write (40 variables to list with "OR" each of them!) and that you used the=
=20
"/" sign instead of the "\" sign to be able to continue the statement on=20
the following line. Is that right?
If so, are you writing your statement in a program (to be run in batch mode=
=20
with ANALYSIS) or trying to enter directly the whole command in ANALYSIS?=20
In the latter case I'm not sure that you can write a so long statement.=20
What I strongly suggest is to write a program with EPED (save the file with=
=20
a .pgm extension, say "newvar.pgm" for example).

The program "newvar.pgm" should look like this:

READ yourfile.rec
DEFINE newvar <Y>
IF var1=3D"yes" or var2=3D"yes" or..                ...or var(n)=3D"yes" \
     or var(n+1)=3D"yes" or....  or var40=3D"yes" THEN newvar=3D"yes" ELSE=
=20
newvar=3D"no"
ERASE newfile.rec
ROUTE newfile.rec
WRITE RECFILE

Note: Using the "\" sign is to indicate that the statement is continuing on=
=20
the following line; just be sure that there is a space either before the=20
"\" sign or at the beginning of the following line.

Then in ANALYSIS, simply type the command:
RUN newvar.pgm

If no error message occurs, you should get a newfile.rec; please read it=20
and check that it contains the newvar field and that its value is what you=
=20
expected.

Hope this helps

If you RELATE in the rec file that contains your LEGAL code list, you can
built a combo list box :

Suppose you have to enter antibiotics names in your main data file. The QES
looks like :

IdMAIN <idnum>  ATBname _____________________________

In the chk you declare a REC file for the LEGAL command, and relate into it
if the atb code 'NEW' is choosen :

IdMAIN
 KEY UNIQUE
END

ATBname
 LEGAL ComboCod.rec
 IF ATBname = "NEW" THEN
   RELATE idMAIN COMBOCOD 1
 ENDIF
END

COMBOCOD.REC the atb names list, and the first name must be "NEW".
For not reenter the new code, you also must add some GLOBAL var to get it
back  :

BEFORE FILE
 DEFINE newATB _____________________________ GLOBAL
END

IdMAIN
 KEY UNIQUE
END

ATBname
 LEGAL ComboCod.rec
 IF ATBname = "NEW" THEN
   RELATE idMAIN COMBOCOD 1
   ATBname = newATB
 ENDIF
END

Here is the COMBOCOD.QES :

ATBname_____________________________  cod <idnum> idMAIN #####

and it's CHK :

BEFORE FILE
 DEFINE newATB _____________________________ GLOBAL
 HIDE idMAIN
END

ATBname
 KEY 1
 newATB = ATBname
END

cod
  KEY 2 UNIQUE
END

idMAIN
  KEY
END

On problem remains : after choosing 'NEW' and entering the combocod list
file, you can add a false new code by inadvertance, ie a code that was
prevously entered and already present in the file. I found no way to prevent
this. (reason is the "key unique" requirement for the related field
'idMAIN', which act as a filter on the combocod file and prevent any
doublon's detection; passed 2 hours on this !)

I also tested this technique with a name/code field combinaison ( CODEFIELD
in place of the LEGAL) and it works fine also. I think that by using a test
on empty value in the codefield link field and the /OVER parameter of
ENTER.EXE, you can automatically detect and add new codes, avoiding the
choice of the 'NEW' value and the possibility of adding doublons, but it's a
little more complicated (not tested myself but should work).

In the combo.zip attached you can try all this by entering the main.rec
file.

Sorry for my lack of good coding in english !

Dr. vitsupakorn

Thanks for an honest opinion.
I feel that either no one is being honest with the development team or they
have stopped listening to reason.
We, as colleagues in the profession, respect the Epi Info development team
very deeply for their track record.
Epi 2000 is a different story altogether.
Even Version 1.05 is full of problems.
What is worse is that they have stopped responding properly. I personally
feel that their help desk personnel are really out of their wits about this.
We had this Atherosclerosis data.
First we made a questionnaire with a lot of grids. After entering all data
we found out that analysis does not read the record at all.
I wrote to the team and a person informed me that sure, of course, I must be
doing something wrong somewhere. That essentially meant 'shut up and let us
live in our tranquility of not knowing'.
A generative listening and exploring attitude is not there any more.
After a time no one will feed them back.
The king may live happily with his clothes, ever after.

Syed.

Dear All,

The current issues raised by Dr. Gillani and Dr. Vitsupakorn (copied below)
relate to the bugs in grid and related views. For those of you now familiar
with the complexities of an .mdb file format, you will not find this
entirely surprising. Jens (sp?) and Mark have responded by developing
EpiData, a much simpler and more reliable data entry and documentation
system that uses the .REC file legacy. EI2K's development team has taken a
long-term view, deciding on a more complex, Microsoft-centric view of data
structure. To me, this seems the crux of the discussion.

Because the EI2K development team was looking well into the future, it has
risked alienating Epi Info's loyal users. I do believe that this is serious
business, and that Dr. Gillani's reference to [the fable of] the Emperor's
new cloths is well placed.

I believe that these issues must be addressed in an open way, and they must
be addressed as soon as possible. For now, I would encourage the Epi Info
community to be honest and open in sharing their opinions, but to share them
with the utmost "netiquette." It would be nice to have a thread titled
"Future of Epi Info" so that the others issues don't confound this
discussion. I know that I don't have time to read all the incoming material
from the LISTSERVe, but if you use this title in the Subject line, I'll keep
an eye out. We can then move the discussion along.

Andy? Jens? Mark? Your comments please.

Collegially, and with best wishes,
Bud Gerstman

              working.

It can be no secret that we prefer the EpiInfo v6.xx ways of working
with data to those introduced with the release of EpiInfo 2000. In our
view, the strengths of EpiInfo v6.xx are:

        1. The simplicity of the QES/REC/CHK approach.

        2. The flexibility and comprehensives of the QES/REC/CHK
        approach.

        3. It's widespread use in public health.

        4. The collective knowledge and experience of the EpiInfo v6.xx
        user-community.

In addition, many routine data collection systems (e.g. surveillance
systems) and ongoing trials use the .REC file format and much work has
gone into the writing and debugging of data checking routines as well as
reporting systems. It is important to us that the users / developers of
these systems could start the migration from MSDOS to Windows with the
minimum of extra work.

We are also mindful of the use of 'not-completely new' computers that
are used as 'data-entry terminals' in large studies or reside (e.g.) in
public health departments in the developing world. Our experiences with
EpiInfo 2000 showed that it required well-specified machines on which to
run well. We though it important that a public domain public health
package should run on a minimally specified machine.

And, in short, we liked EpiInfo v6.xx so much that we wanted an 'EpiInfo
v6.xx for Windows'.

Since CDC decided upon a strategy that overlooked what we believe to be
important requirements with regard to the migration of EpiInfo to
Windows we decided to embark on the EpiData development as a more direct
migration of EpiInfo v6.xx to the Windows environment. To the strengths
of the original we have added new functions relating to documentation of
data (e.g. file, value, and variable labels) and the batch checking of
data. You can read more in the EpiData history document:

        http://www.epidata.dk/history.htm

We know of no other program that is better suited for data-entry and
documentation of data that is easy to use for the newcomer whilst
remaining flexible and powerful enough for experienced persons to be
able to build sophisticated data-entry and management system.

With regard to the analysis of data. There are many tools, some
available for free, that do this very well. It should be noted that the
survival analysis and logistic regression programs included with EpiInfo
2000 use the same .REC file data structure as EpiInfo v6.xx and
EpiData and that existing EpiInfo v6.xx data-analysis tools (ANALYSIS,
EPINUT, CSAMPLE, LOGISTIC, cLOGISTIC, KMSURV) all work with EpiData
files.

Like EpiInfo v6.xx and EpiInfo 2000, EpiData is free. Try it for
yourself. The program and documentation files are small (1.1Mb download
total). You can download EpiData from:

        http://www.epidata.dk

EpiData installs no files outside of it's own directory and makes no
changes to your Windows setup. EpiData is safe to install and can be
cleanly uninstalled from the Windows Control Panel.

Whether users prefer the EpiData or the EpiInfo 2000 strategy is a
personal decision. We urge you to try both and decide.

On three major aspects, EpiData will NOT replace the EpiInfo v6.xx.
These are:

        A. EpiData is a single user program and will not allow multiple
        users to enter data in the same .REC file at the same time.

        B. EpiData can produce tables and lists of data but it is NOT a
        data-analysis tool. There are NO plans for the EpiData team to
        create a Windows version of ANALYSIS.EXE. It should be noted,
        however, that the current EpiInfo v6.xx data-analysis tools can
        work with EpiData .REC files and that EpiData can export data in
        a variety of common file formats including export for
        statistical analysis with variable and value labels (STATA in
        the current version, SPSS and SAS planned).

        C. We are not able to establish a hotline or similar support
        service. We will, instead, rely on the vast amount of knowledge
        related to the QES/REC/CHK system available in public health
        circles around the world. We intend to make EpiData easy to use
        and to fix all identified bugs within the functionality we have
        decided to implement. If you report a bug to us we will do our
        best to fix it quickly. Our wish is that EpiData become user-
        supported software in the same way that EpiInfo v6.xx was/is.

We do not know if this situation will change. These are our current
plans. We are working on a very small budget and have no major
institution backing us up with funding, personnel, or large resources.

Our work on EpiData is done as a contribution to the general public
health community which we do in our spare time.

Kind regards to all.

I agree.  We teach Epi-Info in the graduate Epidemiology course here in

data anlaysis using Epi 6.04 (analysis). =20

I have used EpiData and I think it is a far superior system the Epi2000 and
I agree intirely with what you stated in your e-mail. Keep up the excellent
work...your efforts at perfecting and de-bugging Epidata are much
appreciated. I am merely waiting for your program to be able to handle
relational data bases and then I will make the switch from Epi6 to Epidata
permanent!
Thanks Again!

Jens makes some strong points in favor of the Epi6 legacy system. Thank you
Jens!

Personally, I think that the EI2K development team was trying to respect the
need for backward compatibility, but fell somewhat short in achieving this
goal. They were also looking toward a future in which Web-connectivity will
become an important element of public health data sharing. Alas, although
the goals were noble, some frustration ensued because of the attempt to do
too much. This reminds me of what has happened with the PDA market -- Palm
made a very good product because it did a few things well. Other PDAs (e.g.,
the now defunct Apple Newton and some of the Microsoft CE products) have not
succeeded because they tried to do too many things and did none of them
particularly well.

With this said, I'm hoping that the continuing increase in desktop computing
power and continued development of EI2K will amerliorate some of the
problems we've encountered so far.

I'm hoping some EI2K supporters will take some counter position to help
balance the argument.

In union,
Bud Gerstman

Thanks Jamie. Here are some comments in response to your thoughtful

Yes. And there has also been problems when downloading the program.
Inexperience (read: impatient) users cannot tolerate the long download
times. And when their ISP disconnects them in the midst of a download, this
frustrates is compounded. In a world of broadband access, this would not be
a problem. But broadband access for most of the population is still many
years away.

Concur. Most non-technical users need little more than a two-dimensional
data tables. When more complex data systems are needed, a robust database
management system is necessary. I am assuming that that EI2K will eventually
become a robust data system, but for now. . .

In EI2K's favor, I believe that it is easier to set up a complex epi data
base in it, rather than designing the system from scratch in Access. It
seems as if you differ here.

Your comment also points out the fundamental problem with EpiData -- the
lack of a any type of data analysis program. I see that you address this
issue below. (Wonderful!)

Running Epi6's analysis software is a good choice. In addition, one can fall
back on SPSS, STATA, SAS, etc. However, these are costly and not easily
suited to epi analyses. There are also some very good public domain data
analysis programs under development (e.g., FreeStat:
http://openstat.homestead.com/files/FreeStat.htm).

I hope that the EI2K development team is closely following this thread. I
also hope they will not be too disheartened by our comments; we appreciate
their hard work and dedication to public health informatics! It will be
interesting to see how things rapidly develop.

Very sensible comments from Jamie Hocking.

Here are some other general comments:

When I first encountered EPI-INFO,
after using PRODAS, SAS, etc, etc,
I was not impressed.  However, The EPO
continued to improve and add dimensions to the package.
I realized that this product had a certain simplicity,
a good feel for action, and that pieces could be fit together
into very lengthy and complex
systems as necessary.

In fact, there is a certain encouragement
to experiment with EPI6, find new and better ways
of using relations.  Modification, I believe, is
a bit easier in EPI6 than in, say FoxPro,
and flexibility is just what one needs
in the Public Health arena.

Going from ASCII files to MDB files may make
sense to a WINDOWS network engineer, but not
to someone doing Public Health and dealing with
agency personnel who wish to have access to the package.
Try looking into and .MDB file with WordPad or EPED.
I hear about  about trying to fit EPI 2000 table output
and html output onto a page.

Sometimes I wonder who was at that meeting in Atlanta
about the future of EPI-INFO.

Start with the simple, and build upon results.

Pure research has its place, but we need support
of EPI6, and I know that several people are relieved
that the CDC/WHO has offered to continue to support EPI6.
Hopefully EPI 6.04c full will include a fix on the parsing
in ANALYSIS, writerec command which has better control
of what variables are output, and so forth.

Field work will continue--not everyone will live
in cubbies connected by fiber optics and supported
by private contractors at public expense.
The future sometimes turns out a bit different
from the forecasts of technologists.

I would just like to add that after EpiData 1.3 was produced with the
Rebuild, Validate, and Stata Export functions properly working, I felt that
EpiData was ready to go for our purposes of data entry of population survey
questionnaires.  I took it to Africa last month on a CD that contained Epi
Info 2000, Epi 6, and other items.  I worked with our data entry
staff/managers to install all of it, and gave brief introductions on the new
programs.

For these colleagues in developing countries who were already familiar with
Epi 6 to some degree, their eyes really lit up as they explored EpiData.
They understood how the software worked very quickly, and I was impressed
with how EpiData very much teaches itself.  I think that EI2K still has a
lot to offer now and in the future--it's just that EpiData for now provides
a smoother transition into the windows environment.  The use of Comment
Legal to export as value labels is brilliant, and once converted to Stata I
can convert it to anything else using StatTransfer.  With a well-written
questionnaire and data entry program in place, it's possible to produce an
almost-clean and instantly analyzable dataset with EpiData.  I recommend it
to those who do most of their analysis with high-end statistical software
such as SPSS, Stata, etc. and are looking for a solid, yet easy-to-use data
entry program--it's public domain status is great plus.

I think this program is a real winner.  Congratulations to the EpiData
development team.

Scott

Dears Abrantes and Samir:

  I send a file calsem.pgm attached. This file, when run in analysis, make a
file calenda.rec (wait some minutes). It content the fields "dia" (day of
week), "fecha" (day in question, in european date "dd/mm/yyyy"), "semana"
(epi week), "aep" (epi year) and "estacion" (season in south hemispheric).
The epi weeks are calculate like the CDC=B4s way.

You can change the field name in the field "fecha" with the name of date
field in your rec file, you can use check to do this. Then use relate
(relate <yourfile.rec> <name of the common field> <calenda.rec>) and make
your calculations. Ignore the fields "x", "y" and "z".

calsem.pgm make a calendar (in epi604 rec format) from 1990 to 2003, you
can change the last year, in line 153 of the pgm, but do not alter the
first year.

Perhaps, if you are not a spanish spoken or not live in south hemispheric
or not use european dates, you wish to make some changes.... If you can=B4t,
feel free to call me.
=20
I think that calsem.pgm is free of error, but if you detect any, say me
please.=20

Hope this helps and you understand my bad english.

The decision to move over to windows environment adapting MSAccess database
structure has complicated an already difficult task.
Any development effort will inevitably be judged in comparison to Epi 6, a
system that took so  many years to reach the level of functionality that it
did.
Entering Windows arena has further raised expectations. Those who have
experience with MSAccess would tend to expect that kind of flexibility and
ease of use in Epi 2000 environment. To expect so from a program still being
developed is unjustified yet inevitable.
I do think that, in time, Epi 2000 will reach the same level of robustness
as Epi 6 but meanwhile, an ongoing dialogue is what is needed and issues
have to be looked into as they arise.
Frequent feedback will help the team keep pace with the demand for change in
improvement.

Syed.

Syed makes a good point. The initial version of Epi Info for DOS was surely
not as robust or powerful as Epi6;  it took many years to achieve these
improvements. Nevertheless, there are greater expectations for software
today than there were nearly 2 decades ago, primarily because users are no
longer restricted to the technically savvy.

Bit of a scorcher, but I would have to agree that EI2K has not met
expectations.

I use Epi6 for small to medium projects on a 386: it will run on almost any
computer and allows unfunded projects to start up and then have something
to show when they look for support.

It can also be used in old computers people might have at home, to input
data in a convenient place a bit at a time; the data can then be assembled.

Dear All,

You have probably already seen the collective response of the EpiData
team to the 'Future of EpiInfo' thread. I thought that I should give you
my personal response ...

EpiInfo 2000 does not work.

To get EpiInfo 2000 to work will require a lot of time, money, and
effort.

When (if) EpiInfo 2000 does work it will not be "EpiInfo" but something
completely different bearing the name "EpiInfo".

EpiInfo 2000 will never be able to run on minimally specified Win 9x
machines.

CDC should cease development of EpiInfo 2000 and start work on EpiInfo
v7.xx for Windows (EI7W). EI7W would be a port of EpiInfo v6.xx to the
Windows environment.

We are already well on our way to providing replacements for the ENTER,
CHECK, IMPORT, EXPORT, VALIDATE, REC2QES, and MERGE module with our
EpiData project (www.epidata.dk).

We can replace STATCALC and EPITABLE with EpiCalc 2000
(www.myatt.demon.co.uk).

That only leaves the data-analysis modules to develop.

MVAWIN and KMWIN (the packages that do logistic regression and survival
analysis in Epi2000 but actually work with .REC rather than .MDB files)
are almost ready ... they need porting to 32-bit Windows and some work
on the help system to be ready.

That leaves EPINUT, CSAMPLE, and ANALYSIS to port.

We can rely on the EpiInfo v6.xx components as these modules are
developed.

Development of EPINUT and CSAMPLE could be delayed leaving only a single
program (ANALYSIS) to develop. Given that CDC already has the code for
these programs in a format that can be used in Borland Delphi it should
be possible to get working versions out pretty soon. Another solution
would be to implement data-analysis by embedding an open source system
such as R in a friendly user interface.

EI7W is already nearer completion than the EpiInfo 2000 project and that
EI7W represents the best solution achievable in a reasonable time frame.

If CDC are unwilling or unable to develop EI7W then they should release
the entirety of the EpiInfo v6.xx source code under an open source
license and let the EpiInfo user community get on with the job of
producing an EpiInfo v7.xx for Windows.

Let us stop wasting time!

Mark

MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

Hallo EPI-INFO List,
I am not an experienced user of EpiInfo 2000.
I would like to make a chi square test on a table with 4 rows and 4
columns (2 variables with 4 levels).
On page 233 of the EpiInfo 2000 Manual it is said that Analysis could
provide a chi square test on such a table ("When a table has more than 2
rows and 2 columns, Analysis will only provide a chi square test").
But when I try it (command: "TABLES") Analysis only provides a
contingency table not a chi square test. No error message appears.
Can anybody help me?
Thanks
Sven Trelle

Your experience attest to the fact that people with ideas is what we need in
epidemiology rather than newer software or computers.
Software or computers are tools like paper and pencils. I do not see epi
info being ready for archives for several years.  For the sake of history,
are all versions of epi info and first generation computers on display at
the CDC's Global Health Odyssey?

Dear all,

Thanks to Mark to have clearly made the difference between the EpiInfo =
6.xx
family that runs nicely on small computers and other projects that need =
more
ressources.

Many people need in developped countries (at the local level) a =
powerful
software that uses minimal computer ressources ; this is of course =
valid in
most international health projects in under developped countries.

I agree with Mark that efforts should be done for the first family =
(simple
and powerful software let say EI7W like Mark)
For more sophisticated information systems, Access could be used for =
data
collection, and data analysis can be easily done with SAS, SPSS, BMDP, =
or
STATA etc...

Personally I use a lot the Epiglue facilities for developping menus and
integration in the Windows system (call to Excel, Word, IE5....) So I =
think
useful to get such facilities in EI7W
Analysis provides 2 facilities for epi surveillance : REPORT and data
agregation facilities
I also think useful to get them in the port to Windows

Dear colleagues,

We appreciate the involvement of the public health community in making Epi
Info into a product that is used by many public health professionals from
around the world. Contrary to how it may appear, the Epi Info Development
Team monitors this newsgroup. We have tended to stay out of discussions in
the listserv unless they were related to specific technical issues or bugs
and get in touch with the author directly. However, perhaps we should be
more active in our participation, like the EpiData team.

There has been a thread on the listserv dealing with the future of Epi Info.
This week, we are having a focus group with participants from around the
world in Atlanta. The subjects of discussions are Simplicity and
Integration. We hope to have some guidance in how the next version of Epi
Info should be developed with these two goals in mind. We are logging user
concerns and suggestions on the listserv and helpdesk, and they, too, will
be considered in the design process.

The jump from Epi 6 (DOS) to Epi Info 2000 has been a large one, not without
pain and difficulty. We realize that running Epi Info 2000 may be beyond the
capabilities of many users, and we recommend that those users continue with
Epi 6 (DOS). On the other hand, Epi Info 2000 will continue to be enhanced
and debugged, and for those users that need the capabilities of Epi Info
2000, it is a fine tool.

We appreciate all the comments and solutions to problems that are posted on
the listserv. We are working on developing a FAQ and an "intelligent"
database for queries, and will contact some of you for assistance. Please
continue to stay active and participate in the development of what is
arguably one of the most successful public health computer software efforts
in the world.

I am an experienced EpiInfo 6 user but new to to Epi Info 2000

I have brought ~8000 ambulance runs from motor vehicle crashes into MS =
Access 97.  Using Epi Info 2000 Analysis on the Access 97 table,  I =
encounter some problems with define, assign and recode.  I have included =
some code at the end of the message

I have a numeric variable Age. =20

Variable Age_type has the following values:

0 years
1 months
2 days

There are about 50 cases in my data set whose age is given in months or =
days.  When I try to create a variable Age_yrs (age in years) making ages =
in months or days =3D 0, it comes out as a text variable (I want it to be =

I want to create age groups so that I can make cross tables with other =
variables.

------------------------------
I'm hoping some EI2K supporters will take some counter position to help
balance the argument.
------------------------------
The dynamics of "change" are such that much of the discussion about the
future of Epi Info revolves around the same issues that always spring up.
The discussion to date reminds me much about the discussion that occurred
when Microsoft first introduced the Windows 3.1 user interface.  For each of
us the best time to take the plunge will differ.  Don't move ahead until the
time is right for you.

I am NOT a long time Epi Info 6 user with vast amounts of surveillance data
to port, and thousands of users to retrain.  If I were, I would CERTAINLY
sound more like many on this list serve who are in that boat.  However,
given that Epi Info 6 still exists, and the Epi Data Team has voluntarily
made dramatic stides at supporting a transition strategy, there is certainly
no mandate to suddently abandon your legacy surveillance system if your
cost/benefit postition is not yet ready.  To those in this position, I say
carry-on.  You are doing the right thing, and you owe a debt of gratitude to
Jens and Mark for carrying part of your burdon out of their own personal
committment to their own legacy projects.  Give back to the Epi Info 6
community if you are capable to pay back those who have gone before you.

That said, I think we as a community of "freeware" users are making a huge
mistake to think what we use today is all we could ever want or need.  We
must somewhere deep inside recognize that change goes on.  Computing,
Epidemiological tools, and public health statistics are all evolving
sciences. One of you already pointed out the tremendous contrbution that Epi
Map in Epi Info 2000.  In this world of  global positioning satellites, this
one module alone will make huge contributions that were unthinkable when the
first concepts of Epi Info 6 were being developed by Andy and associates.

Epi Info 2000 IS in its infancy.  It is a mistake to kill the baby because
it does not "run" when it is 18 months old.  The trade-off is growth
potential versus backwards compatibility.  It would seem that an Epi Data
piece coming from the CDC would have made a more graceful transition. But
come on, why are we complaining?  We have a fine group of generous people
who have given us Epi Data anyway.  The CDC team is pointing us at a longer
term future.  If Epi Info 6 helps you further Public Health in the world,
by all means use it.   Just don't make this an us versus them fight.  This
is not in your own long-term self-interest.  We all stand to win by any team
(CDC or Epi Data or any of the rest of you) who has a vision of making more
powerful tools to help us do our jobs.  We MUST not expect perfection from
the start; we must expect a sincere effort to move forward, and we must give
back to the effort.

I have used Epi Info 2000 for some months now, and like many of you have
encountered the shortcomings of infancy.  However, I want to go on record as
supporting the concept and strongly support the CDC team for their effort.
My guess is that any tool as well-embraced as Epi Info 6 has a lot of life
left (we don't kill our elder statesmen), and that is good.  My guess is
also that 20 years from now (even in the remotest field site on earth) about
as many people will use 386 computers as use punch cards today!  We will
expect some sort of database engine under our software (whether MS Jet
engine or something else).  It is right to begin developing toward that
need, so that in the year 2020, potential Epi Info 2020 users can defend Epi
Info 2000 the way we defend Epi Info 6 right now.  Data connectivity may be
measured by sending .rec files as email attachments today, but in 20 years
we will be operating directly on shared databases at unimaginable bandwidths
from even the most remote corners of the earth.  Development towards this
vision must start now.

Greetings-
I'm using Epi6.04b-c.  I've got it on 2 different computers and am
experienceing problems with the Enter program on both computers.

On one computer I get a "Runtime Error 200 at 29E5:11BD" when I click on
"Enter data".  It happens everytime and brings me back to the Epi6 menu. =
 I
tried it again in MS-Dos mode, but got the same error.  "Enterx" also =
gives
an error "Runtime Error 200 at 000B:1753" and after several attempts, =
the
program goes into protected mode.

On the other computer, I can enter data, but then either the computer
crashes or once I close the enter program, it won't let me back in to =
add
more data.  It says "record to long. program halting".  Then yesterday, =
my

re-opened
the .qes file and it was back to words.  However, sometime later, while =
in
"Enter", the screen suddenly went to a variety of colors with what =
appeared
to be the symbols in the background.  I restaretd everything and it =
seemed
ok.  But then, when I went back into "Enter" the computer suddenly =
showed

computer off and on.  This last problem occured once when I was in the =
enter
program and once when I was reading the manual trying to figure out what =

going on.  From here, I turned it off and went for a long walk.

Any thoughts or suggestions??

The Epi2000 menu system is very similar to EpiGlue. It has the same
basic syntax plus some graphics and the ability to add buttons. That's
another bit of EI7W already written.

I agree ... REPORT is one of the best bits of ANALYSIS.

Fair enough, but until the world is on a shared server, I need to be able to
email files to be used on lousy computers in far-off countries and nearby
state health departments, receive files by email, and look at them quickly,
to make minor quick changes in Word Pad (or EPED).  This has been true for
numerous projects in each of the four different medical epidemiologist's
positions, in four different centers, that I've held at CDC, and I've seen
no sign that these requirements will be less relevant in the next five
years.  Epidata is a great addition since many of the people we newly train
in epidemiology are used to a Windows environment now, but I haven't yet
encountered an epi situation in my work life where 2K would be useful.   I'm
willing to believe it will eventually become easier to train computer
novices in Epi2K, and that there won't be so many lumps and bumps in
analysing data, but until the files are easier to deal with, Epi2K won't be
a practical option for many (most?) CDC epidemiologists.  (Perhaps, Bud,
this statement will draw more 2K enthusiasts out of their
fiber-optic-connected cubbies and into this discussion?)

I hope that the focus group discussions apparently going on this week
include a few people who do epidemiological field work under typical field
conditions, not only in developing countries but in state and local health
departments all over the U.S.  Di Bennett

Exactly.

I have been an epi info user since ver 3 in 1991. It did and still
does basic data management and the second half is the analysis.
Now migrating to windows based epi2k has had its teething
problems.
Epi Info ver 604 has undergone a lot of testing and correction
since 1991 when ver 3 was made available and the wish list has
expanded and fulfilled.

The epi team had future vision - trying to link data base (Access)
and analysis in one package. remember   Windows ME does not have
DOS support so probably cannot run epi 604 and below. As the PC
community will change over to Win ME and its next ver in 2-3 years
time, DOS support maynot be there at all after about 3-5 years
(foresight of epi info team)

I feel epi2k will also mature into a full fledged stats prog given
time.

secondly, as possibly the epiinfo project may have limited funds,
what is required is that for one or two years some professional
programmer's help may be sought to fine tune the EPI2000K software
and integrate it with Access (presuming Office 97 and 2000 will be
the common platform available 5 years hence in 80 % of PC). else,
the EPI2000K can be developed as platform independent and database
independent programme.

Thirdly, what we need is DE prog with validations (epidata or any
simpler windows prog) and lets integrate a data analysis prog with
facilty of importing/exporting various file formats

Nicely put, Bud.

I think that the legacy data format of Epi6 has a long life,
especially among
those who work in field conditions or with minimal technical
support. Although
computers have far surpassed what Andy Dean and others dreamed of
when they
started the EpiInfo project, some of the other conditions they had
have not:
removable diskette storage is generally limited to 1.44MB
diskettes

Binding Epi2000 to the Access engine seemed like a good idea
because it gives
(potentially) the power of a trusted relational database at no
cost to the user.
However, it seems to me that the people having problems with Epi6
were those
developing surveillance systems or complex databases. This is a
lot easier to do
in Access directly, once you take the time to learn how to
establish validity
checks on the data. In my experience, analysis of such data sets
involves
manipulation of the data out of the relations and into a simple
matrix anyway.
What those system development people really need is a robust
database management
software (Access, Approach, etc) and they should put out the small
amount of
money they need to get it. Then they need a robust analysis
package that will do
the right analyses (i.e. what Epi6 could do) and that is the real
strength of
what the EpiInfo team have created.

For those of us who teach for field use or anyone just trying to
manage
reasonable data sets, Epi6 was great. We are probably going with
EpiData when we
teach our incoming class this summer, as the data entry and
validation are
really quite nice and Jens, et al have added some obvious
functions that were
missing from Epi6.

We can still run Epi6, so remains the analysis software of choice
(i.e. free and
does what an epidemiologist expects). We'll probably install
Epi2000 on our
field laptops also, and teach people how to import .rec files, to
take advantage
of the menued analysis (when it starts working cleanly) and
EpiMap - the best
part of Epi2000. We have lots of power and hard drive in the
laptops, but I
won't be encouranging any of our field epidemiologists to e-mail
me .mdb files
over phone lines from the field.

Dear All,

The current issues raised by Dr. Gillani and Dr. Vitsupakorn
(copied below)
relate to the bugs in grid and related views. For those of you now
familiar
with the complexities of an .mdb file format, you will not find
this
entirely surprising. Jens (sp?) and Mark have responded by
developing
EpiData, a much simpler and more reliable data entry and
documentation
system that uses the .REC file legacy. EI2K's development team has
taken a
long-term view, deciding on a more complex, Microsoft-centric view
of data
structure. To me, this seems the crux of the discussion.

Because the EI2K development team was looking well into the
future, it has
risked alienating Epi Info's loyal users. I do believe that this
is serious
business, and that Dr. Gillani's reference to [the fable of] the
Emperor's
new cloths is well placed.

I believe that these issues must be addressed in an open way, and
they must
be addressed as soon as possible. For now, I would encourage the

Hi, EpiInfo users and developers!

I'm glad to see this discussion unfold. Very constructive!
Makes one wonder what will happen next!

PREDICTIONS:

>As the PC community will change over to Win ME and
>its next ver in 2-3 years time

Personally, I have a problem with predictions like this.

Will we "change over to Win ME and its next version"?
Will we use Linux or other "free/open source" software?
Will we be using something different?
A mixture of the above and more?
And then what?

TWO ELEMENTS OF OPENNESS:

Some people in the free/open source arena suggest that the
main thing is to keep two things "open": data formats, and
the source of the programs.

I feel this two elements of "openness" may be even more important
than - or something to go hand in hand with - the Simplicity and
Integration talked about by Steven Yoon of the CDC EpiInfo Team.

What can be done, and how, is a matter of will, design, and resources.
In this list, most of us can help only with the "design" part - even if
it's only asking questions!

(NB: I'm not an expert in any of the things I mention, so perhaps
I use a little too much imagination. But I think the issues are real.)

OPEN DATA FORMAT:

I think .REC is a more "open format" than it's counterpart in EI2K.

If you want encryption as an extra layer, then EpiData is doing that
(if I understand it correctly).

If this "old but usable" data format has limitations, perhaps we should
look towards XML or something of that sort.

What are the limitations of this .REC format?
Why was the change to the EI2K data format desirable?
What other "possibilities" should we take into account when thinking
about data formats?

Personally, I like "text" formats that can be processed in a "piped"
way.

Could we discuss this openly?

OPEN SOURCE / FREE SOFTWARE:

I asked a couple of years ago if the source of EI6 could be released
as "free software", perhaps under a GPL or LGPL license.
Apparently, it can't be done because EpiInfo6 source code links to
some closed-source libraries.

How many libraries? Can they be replaced with open-source libraries?
Can any one have a look at the source, possibly with a non-disclosure
agreement, and write or pay for "open" alternatives? (Yes, you can
pay a programmer to write code that is then "free" as in "free speech".
The "free" in "free software" doesn't always mean "free as in free beer".)
Is this feasible and reasonable?

I would have liked to add a function in ANALYSIS.EXE (or in
analysis.pas if it is written in Pascal) to compute the MEDIAN of a few
data items.
I can't program in Pascal, but I would have asked for it and maybe
some people would have done it - or I might have micro-payed for it
together with others.

Mark Myatt suggests that what we need for an EI7Win (/EI7Linux/EI7etc?)
is mainly ANALYSIS. (With the new Pascal compilers I've heard there
shouldn't be much problem, but I'm not an expert at all. I would expect
interest and action in making things easy for recompilation for other
platforms.)

I would add EpiMap for Windows (?) - with a strong emphasis in "open"
(data formats and program code) as something badly needed.

Perhaps an independent EpiGlue - if it can be made independent (by
CDC or, if it is too much hassle and it can be done, by others?).

Maybe some other things?

(I don't want to dream now of "cooperation software" which is something
general; or perhaps there are some specifics to Public Health? This would
be another thread altogether.)

Just my two pesetas - er, sorry, euros.

Subject:      Future of Epi-Info
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"

In response to the vigorous discussion over the past few days regarding the
future of Epi-Info, I have the following comments and observations.

We teach Epi-Info in our graduate Epidemiology course here at the
University of Manitoba (Winnipeg, Man. Canada).  This year we taught
Epi-Data ( for data capture) and Epi-Info 6.04 (for data Analysis).  We did
not use Epi-Info 2000 for several reasons.  Epi-Info 2000 is quite slow on
large data sets, is still quite buggy, and has a much steeper learning
curve (especially in the area of data capture).  This hybrid mix of
software worked very well and students were quickly able to get up to speed
using both pieces of software.

One of my major concerns about the new Epi-Info 2000 is that it is very
slow in analyzing large data sets.  In my work, I regularly analyze and
restructure data sets of 250,000 records plus using Epi-Info 6.04.  In
attempting to do the same thing with Epi-Info 2000, I have run into real
problems.  A data run that might take 60 seconds in Epi-Info 6.04 will take
15 - 20 minutes in Epi-Info 2000, or will not run at all.
For myself, Epi-Info 6.04 is a dependable and efficient workhorse which
Epi-Info 2000 cannot replace at this time. As a result, I cannot in good
faith teach Epi-Info 2000 to our Epidemiology students since I am not
confident it will meet their needs in the field.

I really agree with Mark Myatt on the need to port the ANALYSIS module to
Windows.  I would like to add that I feel it is also important that the
current version of Epi-Info 6.04 be maintained in its current form (i.e.
upgraded so that all modules continue to operate in emerging operating
systems).  Analysis is an especially important module -  for those of us
who do a lot of interactive coding and data restructuring within Analysis,
it would be a shame to lose the ability to quickly analyze and restructure
data sets using keyboard commands (as opposed to the less efficient windows
based mouse commands).

I applaud the work of the Epi-Info 2000 development team in moving us
forward into the Windows environment and into more robust file formats;
however, until Epi-Info 2000 has the full functionality and dependability
of Epi-Info 6.04, I feel we must explore alternative approaches which
ensure our ability to capture and analyze public health data.

Is there a solution to make work ENTERX and ENTER on 800 mhz + processors
and avoid the run time error message ?

Is this the general rule or are there some lucky people in the list that can
run nicely ENTERX and ENTER at 800mhz +  ??

Thanks

A few weeks ago, Dr. Andy Dean notified the user group
that the EPI6 development team has replacement modules
which will run on "faster" processors.  Also, he mentioned
that EPI6 runs on 733 MHz PCs.

Perhaps you should request these modules
from EPI-INFO support if you are having difficulty
on processors 800+ MHz.

I have verified that EPI6 will run
on a 700 MHz Celeron using Windows Me.

Try creating PIF files with AUTO memory allocation HMA=ON and
Protected=ON ... this has solved some other Turbo Pascal problems on
fast machines. Can't test it myself as I only run a 233MHz machine here.

In the zip attached you will find a freeware I use for running old .com or
.exe dos programs witch give 'run time error 200' with high speed cpu. Never
had to try it with Epi but it should work if the problem is really of the
speed.

The command for running Epi-Info will look like :

MOSLO.COM /20 c:\EPI\EPI6.EXE

The parameter /20 (ie % of actual cpu speed I think) can be ajusted but in
my experience it works best.

Plz tell me if it works for your fast PC.

A few weeks ago, Dr. Andy Dean notified the user group
that the EPI6 development team has replacement modules
which will run on "faster" processors.  Also, he mentioned
that EPI6 runs on 733 MHz PCs.

Perhaps you should request these modules
from EPI-INFO support if you are having difficulty
on processors 800+ MHz.

I have verified that EPI6 will run
on a 700 MHz Celeron using Windows Me.

I use epiinfo since 1994. I'm not a epidemiologist, I work in pediatric,
neonatal and maternal hospital. We developed a system in epi5 and then
upgrade whit epi6 for the patient records. The output include hospital
statistics, administrative reports, mortality, productivity, some
epidemiological curves, financial calculation, risk calculation and so on.
It run properly and relatively fast in a LAN.
I received epi2000 enthusiastically, but after a some trial, I desisting to
follow it...
I try Epi Data, and I think that is more adequate to upgrade our job. But
yet not allow relational features, I hope the new version.

While it is true that Windows ME no longer has DOS (16-bit kernel code), it
does have an equivalent of the Windows NT command shell so that there are
not really issues from the point of view of being able to run command line
based applications.  Although the command shell shares much with the OLD DOS
kernel, it is not identical and things glued together to work within the DOS
environment can break when migrating to Windows ME.  With luck most of what
you do from the DOS command prompt will be unchanged.

By the way, the lifetime of Windows ME, itself,  will probably not be all
that long because it is mostly just an improved Windows 98.  It is the last
of breed (Windows 95, 98, ME).  The ultimate migration path Microsoft is
following still seems to lead to an operating system based on Windows NT
technologies (i.e., the successor to Windows 2000).  I think this will be
called Windows XP.  For what it's worth, Windows 2000 also supports a
command line utility that will probably handle Epi Info 6x.

Ironically, although the advanced statistics modules from Epi Info 2000 (16
bit code, I think) runs fine on Windows ME, there are some problems in
Windows 2000 (at least in my hands).  For those of you with Epi6 legacy data
or using Epi Data, you will be glad to find out that these problems are
unrelated to the reading of  .rec files.   They seem more related to the way
Win2K interprets long file names versus 8.3 file names when EI2K creates
temporary .rec files.  If you start with .rec files the statistics modules
themselves operate properly.  EI2K, itself,  has modules constructed for the
command shell (statcalc), for 16-bit Windows (MVAWIN) and for 32-bit Windows
(Analysis).  The older parts of EI2K will do no better or worse than EI6
unless the operating systems provide for backward compatibility.  Luckily
they mostly do.

The old saying "if it ain't broke don't fix it" applies to Epi 6.  It would
be silly to stop using it until there are things that  YOU want to do that
it won't do. What other life insurance policy is relevant anyway?   [I'm
sure you don't trade your car ever 10 years if its still running :-).]

The discussion about the Future of Epi info 2000 has been fascinating
because it reveals that different users have different priorities.  For
myself, data entry is not the issue; we can't get data into the computer in
several ways.  Instead, what I like is the Analysis module and Statcalc. The
people out in the field around here have Windows on their computers but they
have not invested in modern stat packages because they are novices.  if I
was to suggest an 'improvement' in epi info 2000 it would be to drop the
redundant elements (data entry) and keep the Analysis, MVAWIN, and Statcalc.
Since I am used to windows programs crashing now and then, I don't have any
problem recommending and teaching Analysis to beginner analysts.

Dear colleagues,

We appreciate the involvement of the public health community in making Epi
Info into a product that is used by many public health professionals from
around the world. Contrary to how it may appear, the Epi Info Development
Team monitors this newsgroup. We have tended to stay out of discussions in
the listserv unless they were related to specific technical issues or bugs
and get in touch with the author directly. However, perhaps we should be
more active in our participation, like the EpiData team.

There has been a thread on the listserv dealing with the future of Epi Info.
This week, we are having a focus group with participants from around the
world in Atlanta. The subjects of discussions are Simplicity and
Integration. We hope to have some guidance in how the next version of Epi
Info should be developed with these two goals in mind. We are logging user
concerns and suggestions on the listserv and helpdesk, and they, too, will
be considered in the design process.

The jump from Epi 6 (DOS) to Epi Info 2000 has been a large one, not without
pain and difficulty. We realize that running Epi Info 2000 may be beyond the
capabilities of many users, and we recommend that those users continue with
Epi 6 (DOS). On the other hand, Epi Info 2000 will continue to be enhanced
and debugged, and for those users that need the capabilities of Epi Info
2000, it is a fine tool.

We appreciate all the comments and solutions to problems that are posted on
the listserv. We are working on developing a FAQ and an "intelligent"
database for queries, and will contact some of you for assistance. Please
continue to stay active and participate in the development of what is
arguably one of the most successful public health computer software efforts
in the world.

I second all the different motions about the high priority that should be
given to getting Analysis into the Windows framework.  People used to more
complex software are often taken aback at its flexibility and utily, and, as
numerous people have noted, it's easy to teach to novices, though it would
be easier still if it were in Windows.  Hadn't meant to skimp on the
importance of this in making  my remarks about the importance of
facilitating file creation, data entry, and sending of files for people with
less- than-start-of-the-art computer set-ups.

(And on that subject, no one else need point out to me that some people in
many countries have really great computers.  Yes, I know about the
well-funded projects in Botswana, and for that matter, my counterpart in
Moscow has a much better computer set-up than I have.  However, most of the
people in the forty-odd oblasts who enter and send in surveillance data to
him, and occasionally like to do their own analyses, are not in the same
fiber-optically-connected boat.  Neither are many of the people in the state
and county health departments around the U.S. with whom I'm working
currently, many of whom are still on 386s [even if the director has a
pentium].  So please give us a real Epi-info in Windows: Analysis and
reporting in a Windows format.  For everything else, nearly, there's
Epi-Data.  I don't leave home without it.)  Di

Hi Dr. Samir Shah

I think the best way to do this is a related file with a date
classification.
I am sending to your private mail an Excel file as an example.
This file contains 3 fields:

a) Date: This must be the same format and name on your TRA file
b) Week Day: The code for each date from Excle function
b) Class: The classification of the code date as "WEEKEND" and "LAB DAY"

Make coincide the names of the columns with the names of fields of your RTA
file and SAVE AS like DBF format.

When you relate the 2 files, you can obtain the new field CLASS for each
date.

Hope this helps!

Dr. Shah:

I have wanted to, but not been able to do what your asking only in =
Epi/Info.  If you have EXCEL available, one way to get around your problem =
is to export your file to EXCEL (since it's a .REC file, you'll have to =
export it to an intermediate format [.DBF], [.WKS], and then into EXCEL).  =
Once in EXCEL, you can use the WEEKNUM function in a new field (call it =
DAYOFWEEK) which will return a number (1-7) representing the day of week =
for the RTA date field (1=3Dsunday, 2=3Dmonday, etc...).  You can then =
take the file back into Epi/Info, and in ANALYSIS....

DEFINE WEEKEND #
IF DAYOFWEEK=3D1 OR DAYOFWEEK=3D7 THEN WEEKEND=3D0 ELSE/ WEEKEND=3D1

Perform your RTA association using WEEKEND

I would imagine other spreadsheet programs will have the WEEKNUM or =
similar function available.

hope this helps,
matt

You  might  try this try this stratergy.

Define a variable  to count the number of days beteween the first Saturday of
the year and your date, using the days function. Then divide that resulth by 7
then take the mudulus of that and if it is < 2  I think the result might work.
Do not take my word for it but test it.
Good luck

Hello

I am currently using epidata for a breastfeeding survey.  I am trying to
determine the exact age of the baby (in days) when solids/formula etc.. were
introduced to the baby.  I have the baby's date of birth & information on
when the item was introduced (for example: baby was 2 months old).  Is there
a way to calculate the exact number of days given this information; I know I
could convert  weeks -to months- to days, but I was looking for an exact
number of days given the baby's date of birth (can the calculation take into
account the number of days per month etc?)

I would appreciate any assistance.

Hi,

I have a dataset which is in EpiInfo and I have been converting it for use
in SAS, so I never actually use EpiInfo.  Unfortunately, my dates include
both year 2000 and 1999 and when I convert this to SAS it makes the 2000s
into 1900s.  Is there anything simple that I can do to the EpiInfo file to
make it think that my years are 2000 and NOT 1900?  I have to do
calculations and need the years to be correct.

Thanks from the novice,

Dear Dr.Shah,

Matt Snell has come up with the right answer.
The steps are like this.

**1. Run export.exe in the Epi6 directory.
**2. In the "Input File Name" field, enter your .rec file name, and in the
"Output Format" field, choose dBASE 4.
**3. The output file name is entered automatically, so chose ok.
**4. Now you have a .dbf file in the Epi6 directory.
**5. Start Excel ( I have tested it on Excel 97 but it should work with
Excel 2000 as well ).
**6. Go to File > Open and then in the Open dialogue box, choose "Files of
type" as "dBase Files" and in the "Look in" field, move to Epi6 and choose
your previously created .dbf file.
**8, Excel imports the file. Suppose column A is your date field.
**8. You will need two empty columns next to it, so select all columns
except A and move them two columns to the right. Now you have empty columns
B and C. Give them Column headings that you think appropriate for WEEKDAY
and WEEKEND variables in you .rec file that you will create after
manipulation in Excel.
**9. Row 1 should have the column headings, so select cell B2 and in the
formula bar, click on =.
**10. The formula should look like =WEEKDAY(A2,1). This will give you the
weekday number for the dates, Sunday being 1 and Saturday 7.
**11. Next, copy this formula to all the cells in the column B (holding the
small black square in the lower left corner of a select cell and dragging it
down copies the formula).
**12. Next select C2 and click on the = in the formula bar.
**13. In this cell, your formula will be =IF(MOD(B2,6)=0,"Y","N"), supposing
that you weekend day is Friday (day 6).
**14. What happens is that if the value of the weekday, calculated in column
B, is divisible by 6 then the corresponding cell in column C is set to Y
else it is set to N. This gives you the equivalent of an EpiInfo Yes/No
field.
**15. Copy the formula in the whole of the C column as you did for B.
**16. Next, save the file as .dbf file.
**17. Start Import.exe in Epi6 directory.
**18. In the "Input Format", chose dBASE , enter the Input and Output files
names and the choose OK.
**19. Now you have a new .rec file that has a fields for WEEKDAY and
WEEKEND. WEEKDAY variable is numerical and WEEKEND a Yes/No type.
**20. In analysis then, you could use Tables command to see any relations.
**21. If you want to set both Thursdays and Fridays as weekend then you will
need to have another appropriately named column in which Thursdays should be
marked as weekends too (=IF(MOD(B2,5)=0,"Y","N"). Then, in analysis you
could define another string variable with filed width one only and set it to
Y if any of the previous two variables is Y else set it to N.

Further suggestions/comments are welcome.

Good Luck.

Let me suggest the following SAS code:

(Date of Birth is DOB)

DOB =3D DMY(day(DOB), month(DOB), (years(DOB) + (years(DOB)=3D1900)*100=
));

I think it should work. Check it and let me know if if produces an erro=

Calculating during dataentry is relatively easy. Make a integer field of at
least length 5 :
qes:
date1  <dd/mm/yyyy> (or <mm/dd/yyyy>
date2  <dd/mm/yyyy>
Countday #####
Todaycnt #####

The reason for the length 5 is technical, see explanation. The calculations
in EpiData are unfortunately higly sensible to differences in calculations
of reals and integers of this sort. We will try to fin a way to simplify
this difference which is irrelevant to the user.

Explanation: now EpiData calculates the difference in terms of a real
number. Any "integer" at least of size 5 are calculated as real, therefore
it works with countday ##### but not with countday ###.  If you want to
have the result in a ### integer enclose in the checkfile the calculation
within the trunc() function.

chk:  integer length of calculated fields is 5 or more
date2
  after entry
     *number of days btw two dates:
     LET countday=date2 - date1
     *number of days from today to an earlier day
     let todaycnt=Today - Date(1,10,2000)
  end
end

'with integer length 3 the lines would be:
     LET countday=trunc(date2 - date1)

* you might also wish to make the calculated days "noenter" fields.

For the question asked yesterday just put in the date of birth and the date
(exact or approximate) into the formulae above. If you have grouped data
instead I think counting days could be problematic - you would then assume
larger precision in the calculation than your data has. E.g. if you collect
grouped data like "At which age was it introduced" <1 month 1-2 months etc.
Then I would rather use a comment legal. If you can collect data by date it
would be more precise.

Re: weekend - day of week

Release 1.4 of EpiData to be released within a few weeks contains two
functions for the check file useful in relation to the question.

DayOfWeek(date) returning the day number of a date.
Week(date)      returning the week number of the date

This could be applied in the check file, but if you have entered the
data it can be difficult to apply it to all records. A later version of
EpiData will most likely include an "apply check file for this field all
records" command which would solve your problem. We will inform the list
when (and if) we implement such a command.

Note that first day of week is monday in Denmark (Europe) and possibly
sunday in other regions.

Hi ingrid:

Perhaps you have wrong definition of the YEARCUT option. You
can try this:

data _null_;
  call symput("FDATE", put("&sysdate"d, year4.));
run;
%let YEARCUT=%eval(&FDATE+10);

If the problem is in the yarcut option, I suppose that it will resolve your
issue. Regards. Josep Roca

Dear EPI Discussion Group Participants and Support:

Is there a way to have these discussions filed for easy access when needed.
Unless I am working on an procedure, it is hard to recall from the
discussion how to address
problems encountered. A simple filling could group FAQ by topics and
suggested answers. I am planning to start printing and filling the emails
but I can see the limitations of such a method.

Thanks,

Subject: Re: [EPI-INFO] Weekdays from date field.

Dear Dr.Shah,

Matt Snell has come up with the right answer.
The steps are like this.

**1. Run export.exe in the Epi6 directory.
**2. In the "Input File Name" field, enter your .rec file name, and in the
"Output Format" field, choose dBASE 4.
**3. The output file name is entered automatically, so chose ok.
**4. Now you have a .dbf file in the Epi6 directory.
**5. Start Excel ( I have tested it on Excel 97 but it should work with
Excel 2000 as well ).
**6. Go to File > Open and then in the Open dialogue box, choose "Files of
type" as "dBase Files" and in the "Look in" field, move to Epi6 and choose
your previously created .dbf file.
**8, Excel imports the file. Suppose column A is your date field.
**8. You will need two empty columns next to it, so select all columns
except A and move them two columns to the right. Now you have empty columns
B and C. Give them Column headings that you think appropriate for WEEKDAY
and WEEKEND variables in you .rec file that you will create after
manipulation in Excel.
**9. Row 1 should have the column headings, so select cell B2 and in the
formula bar, click on =.
**10. The formula should look like =WEEKDAY(A2,1). This will give you the
weekday number for the dates, Sunday being 1 and Saturday 7.
**11. Next, copy this formula to all the cells in the column B (holding the
small black square in the lower left corner of a select cell and dragging it
down copies the formula).
**12. Next select C2 and click on the = in the formula bar.
**13. In this cell, your formula will be =IF(MOD(B2,6)=0,"Y","N"), supposing
that you weekend day is Friday (day 6).
**14. What happens is that if the value of the weekday, calculated in column
B, is divisible by 6 then the corresponding cell in column C is set to Y
else it is set to N. This gives you the equivalent of an EpiInfo Yes/No
field.
**15. Copy the formula in the whole of the C column as you did for B.
**16. Next, save the file as .dbf file.
**17. Start Import.exe in Epi6 directory.
**18. In the "Input Format", chose dBASE , enter the Input and Output files
names and the choose OK.
**19. Now you have a new .rec file that has a fields for WEEKDAY and
WEEKEND. WEEKDAY variable is numerical and WEEKEND a Yes/No type.
**20. In analysis then, you could use Tables command to see any relations.
**21. If you want to set both Thursdays and Fridays as weekend then you will
need to have another appropriately named column in which Thursdays should be
marked as weekends too (=IF(MOD(B2,5)=0,"Y","N"). Then, in analysis you
could define another string variable with filed width one only and set it to
Y if any of the previous two variables is Y else set it to N.

Further suggestions/comments are welcome.

Good Luck.

Dear Dr. Shah and others,

I suggest you use the idea of the "mod" function,
which is found in algebra.

* Remark: 01/01/1900 was a Monday
define days #####
days = yourdate - "01/01/1900"

* Definition: dayn = 1 for Monday  ...,=7 for Sunday
define dayn #
dayn = days - 7 * (days DIV 7) + 1

* Result: Now you can use dayn to index into an array,
* pick out a label, and so forth.

Cordially,
GLC

Probably, some questions have already been asked but is there a way to know

Dr. Sentilhes,
Are you trying to do this in your .chk file or in analysis?

Lets say that the minimum value that you want is 10. In the .chk file
you would write:

var1
range 10 infinity      (if you want the range to be between 10 and 20
then you would write:   range 10 20)
end

if you want to select variables with a value of a minimum of 10 in
Anaysis then you would type:

select var1 >=10

And that's it. Hope this helps,

Sarah

Thanks Jose,

This solution was very good, although I had to do a few corrections to =

it actually work. The correction was just changing the order of the =
month
and day and calling it year instead of years.  This is much easier (for =
me
anyway) than trying to find a fix in Epi-Info.=20

DOB =3D MDY(month(DOB), day(DOB), (year(DOB) + =
(year(DOB)=3D1900)*100));

My own attempts before this were a disaster with trying to add days to =
the
entire function instead of just the years.  I was getting stuck on the =
leap
year problem.

Anyway this was a very easy and quick solution.  THANKS!!

Let me suggest the following SAS code:

I think it should work. Check it and let me know if if produces an =

The context of your question is not quite clear, but here are
some thoughts.... considering for example the variable WEIGHT
(say in kilograms)

For data entry you can define the MINIMUM and MAXIMUM allowed
values by using the CHECK program where using F1/F2 you can
define Min/Max values.  All these function keys do actually is
write a snippet of code for your CHK file which will look like
this:

WEIGHT
  RANGE 30 90
END

You can access and edit such snippets by pressing F9 when the
cursor is in the WEIGHT field, or by opening your CHK file in
EPED (or any other ASCII editor such as windows Notepad etc.)

Alterntavelyk, if you were in ANALYSIS and were looking for the
minimum value of WEIGHT in a data set with many records already
entered, then:

SORT WEIGHT
BROWSE
(or BROWSE WEIGHT V1 V2 V3 etc.)

would let you see by inspection the minimum value of the WEIGHT
in your data set

However, if you wished to do something more complex, such as
have a program which could automatically identify the minimum
value of WEIGHT in a data set, and use this value automatically
in another PGM file, then you would need to do something a bit
more complex such as writing a little PGM file for example:

READ FILE1.REC
SORT WEIGHT
ERASE FILE2.REC
ROUTE FILE2.REC
WRITE RECFILE
READ FILE2
SELECT RECNUMBER = 1  (since min WEIGHT value will be in record
1
DEFINE WTMIN ### GLOBAL
WTMIN = WEIGHT

and you could then READ other files (e.g. even FILE1.REC again)
and use the value of WTMIN for various calculations.... e.g. to
see how many KG. difference there was between the WEIGHT of each
observation and the minimum weight.

You might have to modify or refine the code snippet I give above
(I have just written this off the cuff and have not tested it)
but this is the basic line of reasoning and should put you on
the right track.

Hope this helps.

Dears Abrantes and Samir:

I send a file calsem.pgm attached. This file, when run in analysis, make a
file calenda.rec (wait some minutes). It content the fields "dia" (day of
week), "fecha" (day in question, in european date "dd/mm/yyyy"), "semana"
(epi week), "aep" (epi year) and "estacion" (season in south hemispheric).
The epi weeks are calculate like the CDC=B4s way.

You can change the field name in the field "fecha" with the name of date
field in your rec file, you can use check to do this. Then use relate
(relate <yourfile.rec> <name of the common field> <calenda.rec>) and make
your calculations. Ignore the fields "x", "y" and "z"

calsem.pgm make a calendar (in epi604 rec format) from 1990 to 2003, you
can change the last year, in line 153 of the pgm, but do not alter the
first year.

Perhaps, if you are not a spanish spoken or not live in south hemispheric
or not use european dates, you wish to make some changes.... If you can=B4t,
feel free to call me.
=20
I think that calsem.pgm is free of error, but if you detect any, say me
please.=20

Hope this helps and you understand my bad english.

Dear Dr Sentilhes,

Just a little thing you may need to add to the program suggested by E.=20
Brenner: if you have some missing values in your file, they will be=20
classified at the beginning of the file when it is sorted . Therefore you=20
need to eliminate them before writing the new file (see below).

Hope this helps.

Hi Epi users,

Does anyone know how to use colors in a data entry sub menu, using epi-in=
fo
604c ? I would like to assign different colors for parts of the picklist.

The sub menu look like this :

Hi Franck,

In my opinon, the colors can be only changed for an entire screen. I'm=20
affraid that what you'd like to do remains not possible with Epi604c. But=20
if anybody else could give a reverse opinion (and the way to do it) I would=
=20
be very happy to get it! By the way: is that possible using Epi2000?

Dears Abrantes and Samir:

I send a file calsem.pgm attached. This file, when run in analysis, make a
file calenda.rec (wait some minutes). It content the fields "dia" (day of
week), "fecha" (day in question, in european date "dd/mm/yyyy"), "semana"
(epi week), "aep" (epi year) and "estacion" (season in south hemispheric).
The epi weeks are calculate like the CDC=B4s way.

You can change the field name in the field "fecha" with the name of date
field in your rec file, you can use check to do this. Then use relate
(relate <yourfile.rec> <name of the common field> <calenda.rec>) and make
your calculations. Ignore the fields "x", "y" and "z"

calsem.pgm make a calendar (in epi604 rec format) from 1990 to 2003, you
can change the last year, in line 153 of the pgm, but do not alter the
first year.

Perhaps, if you are not a spanish spoken or not live in south hemispheric
or not use european dates, you wish to make some changes.... If you can=B4t,
feel free to call me.
=20
I think that calsem.pgm is free of error, but if you detect any, say me
please.=20

Hope this helps and you understand my bad english.

Dear EPI Group: I am surprised that David Ravel, MD, made us an offer but we
were not interested. Unless anyone
has a better alternative, I would be very interested in his offer. Also,
would the CDC consider a small investment which would provide an alternative
lengthy discussion on a linked website? Email is great because it is widely
accessible but
at a relatively small cost, a discussion on web format would allow sharing
of more information. Here is an example from a Swahili
discussion.http://www.yale.edu/Swahili/

Thank you,

Dear Epi group: I have raised this issue in the past but nobody was
interested. I wanted to group the ongoing discussions into topics, put them
into FAQ and eventually add them respectively to Epi6 and Epi2000 manuals.
I hope that people will be more interested now.

Hi Angela, I haven't used Grid, but I find Related views are useful when you
have multiple pieces of related information to store concerning one aspect
on the main questionnaire which you don't need to see when you go to list
all the information concerning the original database

Subject:      Epi6 Non code answer in coded field
MIME-Version: 1.0

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII

I have set up a field inan epi6 file that uses codes. But sometimes I
want to enter something not covered by the codes. In the Epi6
manual (chapter 10) it says "coding restricts the entries allowed as
though they had been designated legal" but goes on to say
"...during data entry if you must enter a value which is not a valid
code or legal value, this can be done using the down-arrow key
instead of <enter> to record the value..." I tried using the down
arrow key to enter a non coded value but it just beeps at me. Does
anyone have any suggestions. Or another way to enter something
other than what is coded?
Thanks

I wouldn't mind hosting a message board on my Web site for ongoing discussions regarding Epi Info. Everyone can post whatever question they have, respond to what's posted and everyone can read the responses. This works very well for my Jobs Postings Board.

To see how it works, go to:
http://www.geocities.com/bettycjung/Phjobs.htm
Click on the the Go to message board.

I can set up a special page with the message board on it, and then you can check it whenever you want, post question, respond to one, or read other people's responses.

Messages stay for two months and then they are deleted from the system.
This won't cost anyone anything. I'm just interested in facilitating communication.

If you want the messages saved I can cut and paste them into textfiles that can be accessed with a link.

Thanks. Betty C. Jung

Hi Christine:
From the DOS prompt you can type this:

ENTER yourfile /OVER

The /OVER command will let you to enter other codes.

For this command you must set PATH to C:\EPI6 on the AUTOEXEC.BAT

If you file is in another directory than EPI6, you can go to that directory
and in the prompt type:

C:\EPI6\ENTER yourfile /OVER

Hope this helps!

Hey epi group,

I am a GISr from the ESRI camp, but I have been riddled with a support
question with a question regarding your softwarethe text of which is:

I have a software for Food Accounting running in Clipper  & I want to link
the database with my GIS (Geographic Info Sys) maps.

We are distributing the food districtwise-blockwise in the states.  I have
the state maps districtwise-blockwise in my system.
The GIS s/w that we are running out here is EPI-MAP 2 .

How do I link my data to the maps ?  I want that when ever the food stocks
are low the block on the map should be red in colour.
As & when the food is received, the quantity is immediately updated through
our Food Accounting software. The block in the map now should automatically
become green in colour.

Now this may be a little difficult to read but what I need, not at all
familiar with your software, is:

1)   What scripting language is used to customize Epi Map (please say VB!)
2)      Is .dbf supported?  (I would think it would be almost useless if it wasn
t, but I got cover my bases)
3)      Is .shp supported?
4)      Anyone answer the question and propose the most efficient solution given
the tools?
5)      Should I recommend Oracle?

My initial thoughts are that I should be able to pull from both datasets
(relational tables would help here),
Compare, and script the coloring with whatever scripting language exists in
EPI.  I could use color fields in
the mapping .dbf and write a client or server-side script to update on a
periodic basis.

I am tired and am saying good night so I hope this is clear, but I hope to
have a few answers in the AM.. Thanks in Advance!

Hello Epi Users

Franck Golliot raises an interesting question about different colors in
different screens.

I think, as an occ doc that colors should not (or be carefully) changed in a
program if the user must work on different screens of different colors. Colors
can be changed if one color correspond to one task and if the user has only one
task to do.

The basis of this recommandation is to try to lower visual efforts.

It is now accepted that the "best" screens  are black letters on white or light
grey background, with only some color spots corresponding to different tasks
called by the screen...

Hope this help...

Friendly yours from deep south pacific

Pour les menus emboits, voici une suggestion si vous avez de grandes
catgories prcises ensuite (ex CIM 10)

Utiliser une premire variable, disons Vcat, reprsentant les grandes
catgories.
par exemple la premire lettre de la CIM 10

le CHK contient la liste avec un comment legal par exemple.(ou bien
mieux vous avez un fichier externe en .rec ou .txt des grandes
catgories)

Selon la valeur choisie, une commande
 if Vcat = "i"...
Then
goto VCATi

 vous envoie vers une autre variable, correspondant  la grande
catgorie, disons VCat1, Vcat2, Vcat3 etc..(autant de variables que de
catgories).
L vous utilisez un fichier .REC externe avec la commande codes ou un
fichier .TXT avec la commande include, chaque fichier correspondant  la
catgorie slectionne en Vcat. (de prfrence  un codefield ou un
commment legal, car cela allge le .CHK et rend la maintenance facile).

Vous allez dire c'est trs lourd et va surcharger l'cran.

Pour viter d'avoir un cran surcharg, toutes les variables vcati (1 
n) seront caches avec HIDE. Simplement dans le if ... then, vous
glissez une commande unhide juste avant le goto.

Une fois la saisie par listes de codes emboits, raliss, il faut
regrouper le resultat de la saisie parpille de Vcat 1  n dans une
seule variable, celle utile pour l'analyse, disons Codemaladi.

deux possibilits.

Soit des sries de If testent le contenu de VCATi
IF VCAT1 > "0"
then Codemaladi = VCAT1
endif
IF VCAT2 > "0"
then Codemaladi = VCAT2
endif
...............
etc jusqu' n.

soit plus lgamment, vous dfinissez en before file une nouvelle
variable intermdiaire disons varint dont le contenu est fix dans le
bloc de VCATi sur lequel vous tes renvoy.

VCATi
comment legal
include VCATi.txt
end
after entry
let malint = VCATi
goto Codemaladi
end

Codemaladi
let codemaladi = malint
noenter
end
*************************************************************
L'assemblage pourrait tre

Before file
define malint <A                            >
hide vcat1
hide vcat2
......
hide vcatn
end

Vcat
mustenter
comment legal
include VCAT.TXT
end
.....
  if Vcat = "i"              (avec i de 1  n )
   Then
   unhide vcati
   goto VCATi
   endif
......
end

VCATi
comment legal
include VCATi.txt
end
after entry
let malint = VCATi
goto Codemaladi
end

.....

Codemaladi
let codemaladi = malint
noenter
end

Ceci fonctionne par exemple avec la CIM 10, pour faciliter la saisie.

Dear Epi 2000 users, especially to Angel Saez,

I've been teaching data management using Epi 2000 to my students this
semester.  I've faced  many problems using it and have sent many queries to
the team developers but hardly get any reply or explanation.  However, here's
are my answers to one of the many problems :

1. Don't use Grid as a relational view.  Once you create a grid with any
number of fields you cannot edit any of them later on.  The only way to edit
the grid is to delete the whole grid and make the new one.

2. You will not be able to check the tab order of fields in grid or even check
the field structures.

3. In Analysis you cannot relate the parent view to related view in grid
format.  That is you cannot analyse data in grid.

I wonder why there 's such problem.  If any of you out there could help me
explain these.  I'm tired of writing to ask the development team in vain.

Thank you,

Kannika Vitsupakorn

Hi Tim,

In the case n=B01 you gave as an example, the baby has a 48 cm length and=20
there is no weight reference data for a so short length: therefore, no=20

Thank you Yves!

Is there documentation somewhere in Epi-Info that states the ranges of =
the
reference data?  That way I can flag values that outside the reference
range.  I will check the online documentation.

Thanks again,

Tim

Hello everybody,

I am new to the List: I am a statistician at the Italian Emilia-Romagna
Region Health  Agency.

Does anyone know if Epi-Info (or other programs) calculate the Charlson
Index, which is useful for estimating severity of comorbidity, defined in
ICD9 CM.

I have read that there is also a SAS macro to estimate it, but I have not
found it yet.

Thank you very much,

Daniela Fortuna

I do not have an epi info program for the Charlson Index, but the SAS code =
is below.

Charlson Index
Basic Introduction to Charlson Index
The Charlson Index contains 19 categories of comorbidity, which are =
primarily defined using ICD-9-CM diagnoses codes (a few procedure codes =
are also employed). Each category has an associated weight, taken from the =
original Charlson paper, which is based on the adjusted risk of one-year =
mortality. The overall comorbidity score reflects the cumulative increased =
likelihood of one-year mortality; the higher the score, the more severe =
the burden of comorbidity.=20

The Charlson Index should be used with caution since the ICD-9-CM codes =
used in the program can refer either to complication or comorbidity =
diagnoses. Unless these can be reliably differentiated it is possible that =
the burden of comorbid disease might be overestimated. The best way to =
avoid the confusion of complications with comorbidities is to remove the =
complications. For hospital datasets this can be done using the diagnosis =
type variable.=20

When this is not possible the use of this macro is not precluded: the =
effect of complications on the comorbidity estimates provided by this =
macro is limited since individual diagnoses are not used directly in =
calculating the comorbidity score. Rather, these determine attribution to =
comorbidity categories which are scored as binary variables. This binary =
attribution within a comorbidity category limits the effect of complication=
s since both the comorbidity and complication codes often fall in the same =
disease category.=20

How the Index works:
The Index may be calculated either for a single record (separation) or =
over a defined period of time prior to an index event. Every diagnosis and =
procedure code is analysed to see if it falls within one of the 16 =
comorbid conditions. If one of these is found a flag (1) for that =
condition is set. These flags are weighted appropriately and summed to =
generate values:=20

    XCHRLSON   - Charlson variable computed from the event admission only.
    PCOMP      - Component variables for the Charlson variable observed
                 on admissions prior to the event. (Note: there are 61
                 component variables)
    XCOMP      - Component variables for the Charlson variable
                 which were observed on the event admission. (Note:
                 There are 61 component variables)
    AGGREGATES - Combinations of PCOMP and XCOMP variables which are=20
                 used for final determination of the Charlson score.

A SAS macro is available from MCHPE that will compute the index.=20

Betty,

Thank you for your kind offer to start an Epi Info message board. I
appreciate it. However, I feel that this might further divide the Epi Info
community which, at this point, would not be a good thing. This is my
opinion of course, and the opinions of others may differ.

We have a database in Epi6 that I converted to Epi2000.  The database
converted ok, but what was a 1 page form in Epi6 became a 3 page form
in Epi2000 MakeView. I need to be able to print out one page per case,

submitted data to us. I have not been able to figure out how to do
this. Does anyone have any suggestions?

I am trying to create a search algorithm for matching on zip code.  The
search sequence needs to start at the index case zip code and compile
potential controls from the index zip code and subsequently in contiguous
zip codes until 15 potential controls are selected.  Is there anyone who has
any experience with this?

Dears Abrantes and Samir:

I send a file calsem.pgm attached. This file, when run in analysis, make a
file calenda.rec (wait some minutes). It content the fields "dia" (day of
week), "fecha" (day in question, in european date "dd/mm/yyyy"), "semana"
(epi week), "aep" (epi year) and "estacion" (season in south hemispheric).
The epi weeks are calculate like the CDC=B4s way.

You can change the field name in the field "fecha" with the name of date
field in your rec file, you can use check to do this. Then use relate
(relate <yourfile.rec> <name of the common field> <calenda.rec>) and make
your calculations. Ignore the fields "x", "y" and "z"

calsem.pgm make a calendar (in epi604 rec format) from 1990 to 2003, you
can change the last year, in line 153 of the pgm, but do not alter the
first year.

Perhaps, if you are not a spanish spoken or not live in south hemispheric
or not use european dates, you wish to make some changes.... If you can=B4t,
feel free to call me.
=20
I think that calsem.pgm is free of error, but if you detect any, say me
please.=20

Hope this helps and you understand my bad english.

Bud,
You have a good point. Even having 2 message boards, one for Epi 2000 and another for Epi 6 would reduce the time I need to sort through dozens of E-mails to find what I'm looking for.
The offer still stands. I'm sure no one has unlimited E-mail storage and unlimited hours to browse through E-mails all day.

If there is enough interest, I will build it (and I'm sure "someone will come."), if not, that's fine, too. Thanks.
Betty C. Jung

Hello,

A tip which usually works : exporting both rec files in x-base format and=20
immediately re-importing them into EpiInfo. They usually are re-imported=20
with the same numeric format. Otherwise I'm pretty sure that the solution=20
proposed by Giles Crane also works: creating a new ID field (with the same=
=20
format) in both files and just attribute to the new ID the value of the old=
=20
ID multiplied by 1. Last idea: combining the two approaches: first creating=
=20
new IDs, then exporting/re-importing the files.
Hope this is of some help.
Good luck!

Yves

Hi ,
just wondering if anyone can help with setting up my .chk file in such a
way that the year of diagnosis is set permanently for each record ( ie:
1996 for each record entered)  but the month and day can still be
entered according to each record.

I am using Epi6.

thanks in advance for all your help as usual!

Sarah:

You can set the year, month and day as separate fields and have

before record
  year =3D 1996
end

year
  noenter
end

OR you can do the following

mdy
  before entry
    mdy =3D "01/01/1996"
  end
  after entry
    if mdy[7,4] <> "1996" then
      type "Year reset to 1996" +10 +0
      mdy =3D mdy[1,6] + "1996"
    endif
  end
end

In section STATCALC there is the option "Qui-Square for linear trend".
This is a good option for testing association between an ordinal =
independent variable and a dichotomic dependent variable.
Could we choose this option for testing the evolution in time for =

In epidata you could have your qes file like this:
qes:
day1 ##
month1 ##
date1 <mm/dd/yyyy>
(day, month and year are reserved words in epidata)

chk:
Day1
  RANGE 1 31
END

Month1
  RANGE 1 12
 after entry
  date1 = date(day1,month1,1996)
 END
end

date1
noenter
end

In this way you would get an error message if your combination of day and
month is not a legal date. E.g. if you enter 31 for day and 2 for month.

Thanks to everyone for the very useful and accurate advice! I appreciate =
it!
Now, I unfortunately have another one for you guys to hopefully help me w=
ith.

If I wanted to make a drop down list of possible response options in Epi6=
 can
I do this, and can I also incorporate a place where another reponse could=
 be
entered if their response wasn't in the options (kind of like a combo box=
 in
word)?

Thanks!

Suggestion for epiinfo v6 or epidata would be:

Idea:
Add as a comment legal the codes you know at the moment.
Allow for a range larger than the number of codes you know now and then for
those codes in addition write the code in an extra field.

When a number of such extra codes exist enlarge the comment legal block
with the added codes and change the limit in the after entry block
appropriately.
As a test you could afterwards make a frequency table of v1txt after
selecting each code value in v1 to make sure that the each extra code only
stands for one txt.

Example:

qes:
(In epidata you do not need the {} if fieldnames are set to "first word")

{v1} numeric ###
{v1txt} contains extra codes _________________

{v2} next field ##

chk file:
v1
comment legal
  1 txt1
  2 txt2
  3 txt3
  4 etc. as many codes as you know at the moment.
end
range 1 20
after entry
  if v1 > 4 then
    goto v1txt
  else
    goto v2
  endif
end

v1txt
  help "Enter the description for the code you entered in v1"
end

v2
end

For checking the description do this in an analysis program:
e.g. epiinfo v6 - analysis.exe:

select v1 = 4
freq v1txt
select
select v1 = 5
freq v1txt
etc.

or Stata (v 6):
for any 4/20: tab v1txt
* where 20 is the max possible value you gave v1.

etc. If all v1txt for a given code are the same you have no problems.

Subject:      How to make codfield longer?
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

Thanks for your input! It's much appreciated. I am now wondering how I
can make as codefield longer so that i can enter the enter name for the
code?

ex.
code=1
name="Clinician Size: Averaged"

when I type in the name for the code it gets cut off at "Clinician Size:
Aver"
and I can not elongate the word any further. Is there any way to do so?

thanks
Sarah

Hello Sarah,

The maximum number of characters (including blank spaces between
words) that you are able to display in a COMMENT LEGAL phrase
is,  I believe 19 spaces.  That is why even if you code in your
CHK file:

:QES
V1 #

:CHK
V1
  COMMENT LEGAL
    1 "CLINICIAN SIZE:AVERAGED"
    2 "OTHER TEXT"
    3 "STILL MORE ETC"
   END
END

You will actually NOT be able to display more than 19
characters, and you will only be able to see in your "combo box"
just "CLINICIAN SIZE:AVER" (19 characters!) as you report.  This
is, to my knowledge, just one of the little limitations inherent
in the DOS version of Epi Info.  Usually though a reasonable
"work around" or suitably clear abbreviation can be found so
that in practice this is not really a major problem.

Hope this helps.

Eric

Thanks you very much for the reply. I had hoped that there was some way
aroudn it, but I guess I'll just have to abbreviate words and phrases.

Announcement

The Interagency Group on Breastfeeding Monitoring (IGBM) requires:

        An experienced research methods consultant

        A media and marketing consultant

For international review and monitoring.

The International Code of Marketing of Breastmilk Substitutes was
adopted by the World Health Assembly in 1981 and is an important measure
in protecting breastfeeding as the healthiest feeding method for
infants.  The Code is being violated in many countries, putting the
health of children at risk.

The Interagency Group on Breastfeeding Monitoring (IGBM) aims to
encourage the monitoring of and compliance with the Code and has
designed methodology for this purpose. The Group is a coalition of
international NGOs, churches and academic bodies. Save the Children UK
acts as the Groups secretariat.

In 1997 IGBM published its report "Cracking the Code" which was the
result of research undertaken in four countries and showed evidence of
Code violations.  IGBM now wishes to appoint two consultants to review
this work.

In collaboration with a range of stakeholders and partners at
international and national levels, the Research Methods consultant will
refine the monitoring methodology to ensure that it is a tool that meets
the needs of national and international organisations involved in
monitoring the International Code of Marketing of Breastmilk
Substitutes.  The Marketing and Media consultant will assess the impact
of the previous monitoring exercise on policy and practice and will make
recommendations for a future international monitoring strategy.

The Research Methodology consultant will have a post graduate degree in
epidemiology, medical statistics, nutrition or public health, and will
have strong and extensive experience in designing and evaluating
research methodologies (both quantitative and qualitative).  It is
anticipated that this consultant would be employed for  about 9 months
starting as soon as possible.

The Media and Marketing consultant will have extensive experience of
evaluating the impact of advocacy and or marketing campaigns at a
variety of levels and will have had experience working  in the non-
governmental or public sectors. It is anticipated that this consultant
would be employed for 3 months starting from April 2001.

Both consultants will have experience of working in international
contexts and would be able to travel overseas.  Both will have excellent
written and verbal communication skills.

Consultants will be employed by the Save the Children and normal terms
and conditions will apply

For further information, please contact:

        Anna Taylor
        IGBM Secretary

Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable

Dear EPI group,
I would like to ask that
1.  Can we revise the .QES file in EPIDATA
without losing data as we can do in EPI6?
     Because after I revised the .QES file, I went to
     Make Data file (.REC), then I got the message=20
     that it will overwrite to the previous file.
2.  How can I combine fields of number, date to text type?
     for example, I have
      .QES
               DOB <mm/dd/yyyy>
               Chart ########
               Last <A               >
               PtInfo ________________________________________
.CHK
PTINFO
    let PTINFO=3D STRING(CHART) + "   " +LAST+ "    " + STRING(DOB)
    type statusbar "Pt Info.:  "
end
=20
In result, I got      #########    <A                >     #####
DOB convert to number instead of DATE type as I wanted.
And Status bar only appear:   Pt Info.:

Thank you very much for your help and have a great day!

Yes - use the function "Revise datafile from revised QES-file" found in =
the Tools-menu. This functions works pretty much the same way as the same =
function in Epi Info 6.04. But you should read in the helpfile how to use =
this function.

STRING(DOB) should return the date in a date-format, not the date-number. =
This is a bug that will be corrected in the next version of EpiData.

One way of getting around this problem could be:

PtInfo=3DSTRING(CHART)+" "+LAST+" "+STRING(MONTH(DOB))+"/"+STRING(DAY(DOB))=
+"/"+STRING(YEAR(DOB))

The TYPE STATUSBAR is not updated after using a LET-command. The text in =
the statusbar is only updated during manual dataintry in the field or when =
there is a change of record. This should be corrected in the next version =
of EpiData, too.

error-message occurs: ".REC header too long!". Same file works
on an other computer well. I have checked the header of the file for
right number, which indicates the number of lines of header
material that precede the data records.

Any ideas?

Thank you in advance.

Hi Joe,

I don't believe it!  There must be a way to make the ids compatiable.

Did you consider the following steps:
               (1)reading the .dbf file and creating a .rec file,
               (2) creating an id field and setting this equal to the old
field
               (3) Finally, dealing with the different name of the id
field.

If by merging you mean relating, converting the id field should be
sufficient.
If by merging you mean appending to the dataset, or updating, you may have
to look at the other variables as well as the id field.

Subject:      incubation programme epi6/epidata
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII

I have written a small programme in epi6 (DOS) to calculate
incubation. It is designed for foodborne illness outbreaks where
people have eaten from the same meal and a standard "exposure
time" is used. For the analysis we define incubation as the time
between this exposure time and and onset of the first major
symptom (diarrhoea or vomiting). An example of the programme
appears below (where meal was on 8/12/00 at 1pm). I want to build
a "master" questionnaire in epidata for use in such outbreaks. (as
for these we usually ask the same basic questions but just change
the names of the foods according to the menu) I wondered if I could
build something like this programme into the questionnaire via the
check file. has anyone done something similar? If I renamed and
saved the questionnaire  would the check file be retained?
Thanks Christine

Subject:      Merging databases problem
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

I am trying to append two "Epi 2000" formatted databases together but keep
getting a syntex error message that won't permit them to merge.  Except for
their titles, both databases are identical, i.e., they have identical
fields and field formatting.  My latest attempt, which failed, was the
following:

READ "Epi 2000" 'H:\Epi2000\Prot&Safety.mdb':viewOutofhomePlacementSurvey1
MERGE "Epi 2000" 'H:\Epi2000\OHPse.mdb':viewOutofhomePlacementSurvey1
APPEND
LINKNAME= MergeTables1 ChildsSSN::ChildsSSN
READ MergeTables1

The typical error message I get says:

     Syntax error in command:
     MERGE "Epi 2000" 'H:\Epi2000\OHPse.mdb':viewOutofhomePlacementSurvey1
     LINKNAME=MergeTables1 APPEND

I tried placing the word "APPEND" after the Linkname, in case the error
message was telling me to do that, but I still got the same error message.
Can anybody see what I'm doing wrong....and can suggest how to help me out?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thank You!

Dear Dr. Raveh

If you have used Epi6 and are familiar with the 'Chi-square for trend' in
that program, you shouldn't have any problems.  It doesn't come out clearly
from your e-mail but I think your data is categorical.  If this is true
Chi-square for trend should do nicely.

For the data that you have in MS Excel you can use the 'save as' command and
then save it as a database file (.dbf). Both programs Epiinfo and SPSS can
read dbf files.  The problem is that if you have your data on multiple
sheets in Excel, you will have to save each sheet as a separate file.  DBF
does not support multiple sheets.

I hope this helps.  Good Luck!

        Dear Epi team - please post this request on the discussion group
board. Twice the delivery failed.

        I am looking for a statistical test for trend:  I have percentages
of sensitivities (and the "n") of various bacteria against various
antibiotics, across ten years. What is the statistical test to determine
numerically if there is a trend for increasing resistance of some bacteria
against some antibiotic over the years, or is it only variations without
trend?

        I found that test in the PEPI programs under "TREND".  It is a nice,
free but a DOS based program, so I must insert every number manually.  Once
I made a mistake, I must type all from the beginning.    I found TREND tests
on the excellent Epi6.04c as well, but which test to use? will they retain
the data for future analysis with the addition od another year's data?
        As I have many tables on Excel,  is there a way to insert my data to
Trend test via a "copy-paste" windows mode?
        I have SPSS 10.0 for windows, it mentions the TREND test but where
is it in the program was not clear to me.

        Thank you all for the help,

Is it appropriate to conduct a principal components analysis if the original

between 1 and 3, whereas the response categories to item 2 can range between 1
and 5)?

Is there a debate about this issue? Does anyone know of suitable references

planning of a PCA?

Thank-you for you time in considering this,

The usual principal components computation
provides essentially the same principal components
even when the scales of variables vary.
Sometimes it is helpful numerically to standardize
the variables by subtracting means and dividing
by the standard deviations.

Your question reveals that you need more insight
into the nature of principal components calculations.

For a manual method of computing principal components
which provides insight, and other principal component
analyses related to singular value decomposition,
you might wish to check some of the papers
of John Mandel, formerly of the National Bureau of Standards
(now named something else).  The journal Technometrics
has some of John's papers.

I hope you find out why and will soon be able to send messages directly!
Could it be the way the listserv interprets your return address? I had
trouble with this some time ago; it was the hospital's mail server that did
not send the return address reliably in the same way.

Are you doing a multivariate analysis to consider your various bacteria and
antibiotics simultaneously? Are there hierarchies or simplifications in
your hypotheses (like methicillin resistance), which might reduce the
dimensionality? How many years do you have? Do you consider 1
microbiological test/patient or do you include all microbiological test
results on the same patient?

I am studying resistance to antibiotics in hospitalized patients in an
Italian hospital...

I have read about the dbf solution offered later by Dr. Azfar Siddiqi and
this sounds like a very good idea about how to transfer data. If there are
many excel sheets you can preserve an existing relational database
structure in EPI6 or if there are just different occasions without
relational structure you can copy/paste all the data in one excel sheet and
then export.

I hope this helps, and I add my wish for peace in your area and in all the

use a search engine(e.g. google.com) and write down this research =
string:
ftp dxf3ds.zip
you'll get in answer a list of 10~15 sites from which you can download =

Subject: Trend

Dear Epi team - please post this request on the discussion group board. Once
the delivery failed.

I am looking for a statistical test for trend:  I have percentages of
sensitivities (and the "n") of various bacteria against various antibiotics,
across ten years. What is the statistical test to determine numerically if
there is a trend for increasing resistance of some bacteria against some
antibiotic over the years, or is it only variations without trend?

I found that test in the PEPI programs under "TREND".  It is a nice, free
but a DOS based program, so I must insert every number manually.  Once I
made a mistake, I must type all from the beginning.    I found TREND tests
on the excellent Epi6.04c as well, but which test to use? will they retain
the data for future analysis with the addition od another year's data?
As I have many tables on Excel,  is there a way to insert my data to Trend
test via a "copy-paste" windows mode?
I have SPSS 10.0 for windows, it mentions the TREND test but where is it in
the program was not clear to me.

Thank you all for the help,

<DIV></DIV>&gt;Hi,
<DIV></DIV>&gt;I still have problems with epiinfo2000...could someone help me?
<DIV></DIV>&gt;I want to create a variable x and assign some values to it, considering
<DIV></DIV>&gt;certain conditions on the variables y , s and z.
<DIV></DIV>&gt;the program I'm using is, for example:
<DIV></DIV>&gt;
<DIV></DIV>&gt;define x
<DIV></DIV>&gt;assign x=0
<DIV></DIV>&gt;if ((y=5) or(s=7))
<DIV></DIV>&gt;then
<DIV></DIV>&gt;assign x=1
<DIV></DIV>&gt;end
<DIV></DIV>&gt;if ((x=1)) and (z=(+)))
<DIV></DIV>&gt;then
<DIV></DIV>&gt;assign
<DIV></DIV>&gt;x=2
<DIV></DIV>&gt;end
<DIV></DIV>&gt;
<DIV></DIV>&gt;
<DIV></DIV>&gt;and now, I use
<DIV></DIV>&gt;
<DIV></DIV>&gt;freq x
<DIV></DIV>&gt;
<DIV></DIV>&gt;but the result of this command is that all the values of x in the data
<DIV></DIV>&gt;assigned to "2" (the last value assigned to x in my program)...but if I use
<DIV></DIV>&gt;another software, as, for example
<DIV></DIV>&gt;"stata", to compute this variable, I obtain different values for x, as I
<DIV></DIV>&gt;expected (the right values). the problem is that I need to use epiinfo for
<DIV></DIV>&gt;my analysis, so I need to know how to compute such variables to continue my
<DIV></DIV>&gt;analysis.
<DIV></DIV>&gt;Does someone know what could be wrong in my program ???
<DIV></DIV>&gt;
<DIV></DIV>&gt;Thanks for reply.
<DIV></DIV>&gt;Regards.
<DIV></DIV>&gt;Cheraz.

I am researching an suposed-to-be outbreak about "Multiple Sclerosis" (=
the subject of
the study was to know if it was a constant illness or if it changes alo=

I have read some literacy, and all the subjects referred me to an artic=

Sclerosis in Faroe Islands.
It speaks about the contrast of homogenity in a Poisson Processes with =
the input of
times of detection of the illness.
The problem was that the observed values was "confunded" by a Weibull d=
istribution.

I interpret is as a queue with Poisson Process as input and weibull as =
serving times...

All in all, the object of my message is the article that appeared at "N=

I wonder if anyone has the article or access to the article to send it =
to me by email.

I havent found the reference yet:

I'd appreciate any help.

Chris,

There are no public domain health authority (HA)  boundary files available
in the UK. Being an academic, you could download local authority (LA)
boundaries from MIDAS and merge them to form HAs.... Most LAs are now
coterminus with HAs.

Both ESRI and MapInfo have utitlities to convert boundaries to .shp.

Regards,

Phil.

Hi,

I would like to know if it it possible in analysis in epiinfo2000 to use
tables and <bold>remove the percentages</bold>...since I need only the
number of cases and the total...is there an optionnal command for that?

thanks.

re: Epidemiological week calculation

With this check file you can do it in EpiData for 2001:
Example should work for years 1999-2004. Note that in some countries weeks
start on monday I think in others on sunday.

QES:
Test of calculation of weeks
TestDate:  <dd/mm/yyyy>  (works for years 1999-2004)
TestYear: ####  first day of week one in that year: <dd/mm/yyyy>
Week ##

CHK file:

before file
 define next <dd/mm/yyyy>
 Help "Note week's start on monday's"
end

testyear
 noenter
end

week
 noenter
end

first
 noenter
end

testdate

* range 01/01/1999 31/12/2004

after entry
  testyear = year(testdate)
 if year(testdate) = 1999 then
   next = "03/01/2000"
   first = "04/01/1999"
 endif
   if year(testdate) = 2000 then
 first = "03/01/2000"
  next = "01/01/2001"

 endif
   if year(testdate) = 2001 then
 first = "01/01/2001"
  next = "31/12/2001"

 endif
   if year(testdate) = 2002 then
  first = "31/12/2001"
   next = "30/12/2002"
 endif

if year(testdate) = 2003 then
   first = "30/12/2002"
   next = "29/12/2003"
 endif

 if year(testdate) = 2004 then
   first = "29/12/2003"
   next =  "03/01/2005"
 endif

  if (testdate = first)  or (testdate >= next) then
     week = 1
  else
     week = integer(1+((testdate-first)/7))
   endif

  if (testdate < first) or (week = 53) then
    * note this should be refined for some years where week can be 53
   week = 52
  endif
end

end

Idea is to specify the date which is the first day of week 1 in that year
and then to finetune at the end of each year. the same principle should be
rewriteable for epiinfo 6 based on some substrings or the alike.

Above example downloadable from
Http://www.epidata.dk - see examples

We will add week number as a function in EpiData next release.

I have used a way that helps us have the EpidWeek as a number
and also as a string of text - from a PGM.

I think it could be adapted for a CHK.

Here they are.

I hope it helps,

*EpidWeek.PGM (!c)
*
*I created an EpidWeek.rec with yr ####, EpidWeek ##, FirstDay =
<dd/mm/yyyy>,
*LastDay <dd/mm/yyyy>, WeekText <A

*
*Then I filled it in, week by week: 2000, 1, 2/1/2000, 8/1/2000, "2nd - =
8th
Jan 2000", etc.
*
*I keep it in a \ref (for "reference") directory so that I can use it in

*Ideally, if useful, this database could be included in Epi7 or a =

*
read \ref\EpidWeek.rec
select yr =3D 2000
select EpidWeek =3D 1
define FirstWk1 <dd/mm/yyyy> glob
FirstWk1 =3D FirstDay
process
*this puts "02/01/2000" in FirstWk1 - you could have done it
*by hand and change it every year!
*
read DataFile.rec
* this file has an EventDate <dd/mm/yyyy> but we don't (yet)
* know which EpidWeek it is.
define EpidWeek ##
EpidWeek =3D ((EventDate - FirstWk1) div 7) + 1
*this is it - now we can use EpidWeek for our purposes!
*
*If we typed or copied the EpidWeek.REC file, we can now
*use the other variables in that file:
*(I think KEY is needed in field EpidWeek of EpidWeek.CHK)
*
relate EpidWeek EpidWeek.REC
write "Case: " CaseIdent "- Week: " EpidWeek " (" EpidWeek.WeekText ")"
*this should give you:
*Case 1 - Week 1 (2nd - 8th Jan 2000)
*Case 2 - Week 7 (13th - 19th Feb 2000)
*etc
*
*end of the .PGM file

Hi!
We are using a link to a recfile in the DATEOFEVENT field a codefield with EPIWEEK.

This rec file contains every date from the year and the epidemilogical week.
If you are interested in using this file (1998 - 2001), please e-mail me.

Hi there.

If you "know" the direction of the comparison,
use the one-tailed test.

To "know" the direction means that
you can state absolutely that the data effect
should be in one direction.

If you cannot state such absolutely,
then use the two-tailed test.

Cordially,

I have not found any resources for smaller scale maps for germany
either. MAPSCAN, and POPMAP by the UN (can be found with www.google.de
for example) are probably possible, but not very easy to handle
solutions.

Thanks for the link. Unfortunately i have no idea of Danish, and the en=
glish part
of the web have a broken link in the "structure image", so i have no id=

<fontfamily><param>MS Sans Serif</param>Good colleques

The version 1.3 of EpiData is available for download from:
<underline><color><param>0000,0000,ffff</param>http://www.epidata.dk</color></underline>
 (freeware)

EpiData is a windows implementation for dataentry following the QES/CHK/REC file system and structure of EpiInfo version 6. EpiData is freeware and comes as a one in all exe file. Documentation available as windows help files and pdf files. Total size for download of setup disk is 1.1 Mb.

Epidata is NOT for analysis of data, but a condensed frequency table and lists of data can be made. Files can be analysed directly in EpiInfo version 6, Pepi for windows, EpiInfo 2000  or other programs able to read REC files. EpiData can export data to dbase III, comma separated, excel and stata v4-6 formats. Variable and value labels only to stata.

For a complete list of changes from version 1.2 to 1.3 see <underline><color><param>0000,0000,ffff</param>http://www.epidata.dk/history.htm </color></underline>

Major enhancements from version 1.2-1.3 are:

-Specification of color and shape of dataentry field. Lineheight of dataentry form. The addition of dataentry Notes following the REC file.

Implementation of more CHECK commands: color selection in TYPE, legal use, Period (.) can be used in if ... then and let expressions, Date constants, e.g. "22/09/1967",  Before file, after file, before record, after record blocks, Temporary variables (define ....). CONFIRM, CONFIRMFIELD, AUTO,

-Search faster and expanded to three different search criteria.

Search through 80000 records pn pentium 200 Mhz:

Find with index key: 0.6 seconds. Find again momentarily (0.1 second).  Without index: 15 sec.

-Bug-Fix of all identified bugs

Next (and final planned) release will include relate datafiles during dataentry, merge and more options for export. Expected with a few months.

Hi,
I still have problems with epiinfo2000...could someone help me?
I want to create a variable x and assign some values to it, considering
certain conditions on the variables y , s and z.
the program I'm using is, for example:

define x
assign x=0
if ((y=5) or(s=7))
then
assign x=1
end
if ((x=1)) and (z=(+)))
then
assign
x=2
end

and now, I use

freq x

but the result of this command is that all the values of x in the data
assigned to "2" (the last value assigned to x in my program)...but if I use
another software, as, for example
"stata", to compute this variable, I obtain different values for x, as I
expected (the right values). the problem is that I need to use epiinfo for
my analysis, so I need to know how to compute such variables to continue my
analysis.
Does someone know what could be wrong in my program ???

Thanks for reply.
Regards.
Cheraz.

Seasons Greetings from New Zealand -
        I have a bunch of population statistics - primary data that I have
used to calculate a standardized mortality rate using a technique called
indirect standardization, how can I do this in epiinfo 2000 so that I can
extract p values to see if the excess I am finding is statistically
significant and also work out some confidence intervals?

thanks, Rupthi

i  also would like to calculate smr's and map them... i can not get around to it
for several months. i would encourage the cdc to develope basic techniques for
mortality, morbitity, and life-expectancy analysis. Please let me know if you
try to do it alone. I would like to here about it if some has doen this in
access or excel.

Hi,

I'm planning to export the data from an epi-info database into SPSS.  I'd=

like to design some of the variables in the view so that the answers are
numeric, e.g. when entering data, "sex" is either 1(male) 2(female) or 3(=
unknown).
 The legal code button allows me to enter the codes, but it doesn't 'hide=
'
them.  Ideally I'd like the data entry folks to be able to click on the
question, see that 1=3Dmale, etc., and then type in _only_ a number.  Doe=
s
anyone know if this can be done in epi-info (it can in statistical packag=
es
like SPSS)? thanks!

Jodi

Hi,
I asked a question about defining and assigning values to variables using
the if condition  in epiinfo2000 last monday but no one replied ...
In fact, I gave an example of a program , but it was not excactly the same
that I used.  I think that there are 2 problems:

1. when I use for example:
define x
assign x=9
IF ((x=0) or (x=5)) or\
 (v=7) Then
assign x=3
end

-> the "if condition" doesn't work when it is very long ( for example 12
conditions on an existing variable), even if I use "\" at the end of each
long line....but I need that kind of long conditions....

2. when I use for example

define x
assign x=9
IF y=0 then
assign x=2
end
IF v=7 then
assign x=3
end
....
if I continue defining the values of x with many conditions, say, I repeat
30 times that kind of assignment, and I run the program, I have a warning
message saying that the expression is too complex...is there a limit ????
and is it possible to solve my problem ????

thank you for reply...

Hi,

I tried the program that you sent with your previous e-mail (Given below -
bold italicized).

define x
assign x=0
if ((y=5) or(s=7))
then
assign x=1
end
if ((x=1)) and (z=(+)))
then
assign
x=2
end

It worked fine on my computer.  I used a sample data set and was able to
assign values conditioned on four different variables to a newly created
variable.  Yes, when you have too many conditions the program doesn't work.
In Epi 6, I was once trying to add the values from 26 different variables
and it didn't work, so I defined 4 different variables and summed a separate
set of five variables into each one of them and finally added the new
variables and the one that remained (26th).  May be you can try a similar
approach.

works, but it was not the exact problem I had, I gave you a wrong example
because I didn't know what was the bug, so I simplified my program to ask
the question...

now, I really think that using more than 2 conditions in the IF condition
doesn't work and that the bug is there !

but, even if I use other intermediate variables, say having the value 1
or 0 for example for 2 conditions and regroup them finely 2 by 2 in the
final condition, to evoid having long if conditions, I also have the
problem that the expression is too complex...

I don't know if there is a way to save a current file in epiinfo while
using Analysis, because I could save the value of the variable and read
the saved file containing this variable and continue assigning the other
values ???

different variables and summed a separate set of five variables into each
one of them and finally added the new variables and the one that remained
(26th).  May be you can try a similar approach.

Hi again,

This may not be the best thing to do, but I think it will work if you make
intermediate variables as you suggested.  Yes it will make the whole process
tedious but it won't really be that complicated.

Sure you can save the current file in Epiinfo while using analysis.  You can
do so by using the 'WRITE' command and giving a different name to the new
file.

Good Luck!

<excerpt>"Jodi R. Perin" asked ".....like the data entry folks to be able
to click on the question .... ", Does anyone know if this can be done in
epi-info (it can in statistical packages like SPSS)? thanks!

</excerpt><<<<<<<<

Epidata can do it. The program writes REC files that can be analysed in
epiinfo v6, epi2k or exported to any program which can read dbf, excel or
stata files.

A small example will show how - expand as you wish:

QES file:

sex Gender of respondent #

Born Date of Birth <<dd/mm//yyyy>

Work Went to work yesterday #

Change This record saved <<today-dmy>

ID Id number of respondent <<idnum>

the check file for epidata could be written as in epiifo v6:

<fontfamily><param>Courier New</param><bigger>born

range 01/01/1980  01/01/2001

end

sex

 comment legal

    1  Male

    2  Female

    9  Unknown

END

work

  comment legal

    1  yes

    2  no

  end

end

EpiData will read this file, but i</bigger></fontfamily>f you use the
EpiData check file writer function (add/revise checks). Then epidata
would write the same information as this (comment legals/labels are
collected in a labelblock) :

<fontfamily><param>Courier New</param><bigger>LABELBLOCK

  LABEL sex

    1  Male

    2  Female

    9  Unknown

  END

  LABEL yn

    1  yes

    2  no

  END

END

born

range 01/01/1980  01/01/2001

end

sex

  COMMENT LEGAL USE sex

END

work

  COMMENT LEGAL USE yn

END

During data entering the person can either write 1 in sex or hit the grey
+ button on the right hand side of the keyboard and point at "male" which
will enter a 1 in the field sex.

If you wish to have the screen show the word male (---female) on the
screen in green color after entry you would in the checkfile instead
write.

sex

  type comment green

  COMMENT LEGAL USE sex

END

And if you wished to be able to see the id number during dataentry on the
statusbar at bottom of the screen you would include another block:

id

  type statusbar "id = "

end

After entry of data further parts of epidata helps in documenting the
data:

</bigger></fontfamily>In EpiData ask for a "Datafile Documentation" you
get this table: (if your mail program does not support long lines some of
the lines will be word wrapped)

  3. 2  21dec1988  .  17jan2001      3

.

With next release we will most likely include spss as well for exports
(depending on funding), such that for spss and stata you get the data
coded numerically and the data specification containing the numerical
code as well as the labels for values and variables. The labels follows
the data to Stata (and later to SPSS)

I have just read a paper discussing the GEE approach to analyse lung
function changes over time in a longitudinal study. Does anyone know if I
could use Epi-Info 2000 to try the same statistical approach? Thanks a lot.

This is a wild shot in the dark, but I seem to remember that some time =
translation schemes use a decimal point to fix seconds.  You might try =
D:15/09/2000 T:15:30:00.0 PM and see if the last part of the time phrase =

maybe guesses are useful.

<DIV>Dear Epi team - please post this request on the discussion group board. Twice&nbsp;the delivery failed.</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV>I am looking for a statistical test for trend:&nbsp; I have percentages of sensitivities (and the "n") of various bacteria against various antibiotics, across ten years.&nbsp;What is the statistical test to determine numerically if there is a trend for increasing resistance&nbsp;of some bacteria against some antibiotic over the years, or is it only variations without trend?</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV>I found that test in the PEPI programs under "TREND".&nbsp;&nbsp;It is a nice, free but&nbsp;a DOS based program, so I must insert every number manually.&nbsp; Once I made a mistake, I must type all from the beginning.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; I found TREND tests on the excellent&nbsp;Epi6.04c as well, but which test to use? will they retain&nbsp;the data for future analysis with the addition od another year's data? </DIV>
<DIV>As&nbsp;I have many tables on Excel,&nbsp; is there a way to insert my data to Trend test via a "copy-paste" windows mode?&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV>I have SPSS 10.0 for windows, it mentions the TREND test but where is it in the program was not clear to me.&nbsp; </DIV>

hi,
I'm using epiinfo2000, Analysis.
I would like to know if it is possible to define a new variable having the
same  values as an existing variable.
for example, I would like to affect the values of an existing variable y to
a new variable x. I used:
define x permanent
assign x=y
but I have a warning message : left-side variable must have a fixed value...
could someone help me, please?
thanks

Cheraz,

Try making 'x' a 'standard' variable insead of 'permenant' variable .  If =
you want the assignment to be permenant in the sense of being a new column =
then 'write' the result back to your file.

Hope this helps

It seems like you are attempting to use a permanent variable in a different
environment. Different from permanent variables, which are stored in the INI
file and can take one and only one value, standard variables are defined as
SQL statements for the current database, so that you will see one value per
record.

Permanent variables were designed to store "Permanent" data, such as the
current year or in a multi-state application the state where data is
collected (Things that will not change with every record). Let's say you
wish to open viewOswego and then define a variable called "SICK" (without
the quotes) and you whish to store the value of "ILL" in sick, the code
should look like:

READ viewOswego
DEFINE Sick
ASSIGN Sick = ILL

In the previous case, Sick will have the same value ILL has. In fact you can
list sick and Epi Info will return 75 values.

On the other hand, If you define Sick as Permanent. It is like you were
trying to store 75 values into one single cell. It is not going to work.

There is a similar behavior in EPI6 using the command IMMEDIATE.

I think that your problem is inappropriate use of permanent variables.
Please try with standard variables.

Thanks

hi,
I'm using epiinfo2000, Analysis.
I would like to know if it is possible to define a new variable having the
same  values as an existing variable.
for example, I would like to affect the values of an existing variable y to
a new variable x. I used:
define x permanent
assign x=y
but I have a warning message : left-side variable must have a fixed value...
could someone help me, please?
thanks
Cheraz.

Jamie,

I tried doing what you said to do in Epi6 to calculate age, but for some reason
Epi6 doesn't like "datenow". Was I supposed to put in the actual date?

thanks
Sarah

Hi:
In EPI6 you can use:

SYSTEMDATE

this system variable holds the date from the PC clock.

or

define newdate <mm/dd/yyyy>
newdate = "01/09/2001"
age= ((newdate-birthdate)/365.25)

Hope this helps

Hi

can any-one explain the date/time format in Epi2000 to me

I have added the combined field to my qustionnaire:
DD-MM-YYYY HH:MM:SS AMPM

when entering the data

D:15/09/2000 T:15:30:00 PM

it converts the time part of the entry to

D:15/09/2000 T:00:15:30.=20

I understand the program is using the twenty four hour clock, but why is =
it moving the seconds in front of the hours?

Has anyone experienced problems with installing Epi2000 on Systems which
have SCSI controllers? ---such as getting an "Insufficient Termination"
error message after install.

Or for that matter if you have not had problems I would like to hear that

Sarah,

The calculated age you get will depend on what point in the patient's life =
you want to know his/her age.  Many who create databases in Epi Info will =
want to know the age of the person at onset of symptoms or age at =
diagnosis or something like that.  You'll need to use...

(the field name of the date when you want to know the age - dob)/365.25

If you've already got a database and need to calculate the Age in =
ANALYSIS, you'll want to follow Jamie Hockin's advice, except that when he =
used "datenow", he was referring to the date at which you want to know the =
patient's age whether it's systemdate, date of onset, date of vasectomy, =
or whatever.

You can also calculate the age automatically when creating a questionnaire =
in EPED or Makeview with a Check program.

Hope this helps,
matt

Jamie,

I tried doing what you said to do in Epi6 to calculate age, but for some =
reason
Epi6 doesn't like "datenow". Was I supposed to put in the actual date?

thanks

Subject:      Keep an Audit Trail in Epi2000?
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: Text/Plain; charset=us-ascii
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

Hi! I'm new to EpiInfo, and trying to evaluate it for use as a
rapid development tool for small, one-time databases of clinical
data which must be hand-entered from paper forms, cleaned and
passed on for analysis/verification.

My reading of the documentation so far indicates it would have a
quicker setup time than the home-grown application we are
currently using, but I have one requirement that I'm not sure can
be implemented -- should be able to maintain every record entered
as an audit record, with a date/time stamp and userID.  In other
words, once a record is entered, it should not be deleted but if
it needs to be changed the existing record should get marked as
an audit record and a new record (with the change) should be
created with current date/time.

Not asking for how to do this (but if someone has an example that
would be welcome!) - rather just want to know if people with a
solid grasp of Epi2000 think this is possible.

Many thanks in advance!

Dear EPI Group,

Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII
Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable

Kim Dang,

I'm afraid that you have found two bugs in EpiData version 1.2. First bug =
is that you must use single quotes (') instead of double quotes (") in LET =
and IF sentences. The second bug is that EpiData 1.2 can't assign values =
to <Y>-fields using LET commands.

Both bugs will be corrected in EpiData version 1.3 which can be found in =
www.EpiData.dk from the 15th January 2001.

While you wait for version 1.3 of EpiData you can do the following:

1) Change UNDERWT to a 1-digit integer field
2) Change the double quotes (") in IF-commands to single quotes (')

By the way: You don't need the BEFORE ENTRY blocks in BMI and UNDERWT. =
Both fields are NOENTER and therefore the BEFORE ENTRY blocks are never =
called.

Make you qes-file like this:

SEX:  <A>
WTDX:  ###.###
HTDX:  #.###
BMI:   ###.###
UNDERWT:  #

And your chk-file like this:

HTDX     =20
  AFTER ENTRY
    CLEAR BMI
    CLEAR UNDERWT
    LET BMI=3D( WTDX / (HTDX * HTDX) )
    IF (SEX=3D'F') AND (bmi<=3D15.725) THEN
      LET UNDERWT=3D1
    ELSE
      IF (SEX=3D'M') and (bmi<=3D16.575) THEN
        LET UNDERWT=3D1
      ELSE
        IF (SEX=3D'F') AND (bmi>15.725) THEN
          LET UNDERWT=3D0
        ELSE
          IF (SEX=3D'M') AND (bmi>16.575) THEN
            LET UNDERWT=3D0
          ENDIF
        ENDIF
      ENDIF
    ENDIF
  END
END

BMI      =20
  NOENTER
END

UNDERWT  =20
  NOENTER
END

I'm sorry for the inconveniance, but please remember that EpiData is still =
under development. A list of known bugs in EpiData 1.2 can be found in =
www.epidata.dk.=20

Re Kim Dang 's question on Using If then in CHK of EpiData

Within a few weeks we will release v1.3 which has several additions in
relation to the check file language. Among other commands: auto, enter,
before file, after file, before record, after record, period can be used in
if...then, date constants, legal use, confirm. See http://www.epidata.dk -
history and version list.

Concerning Kim Dang's question, the whole if..then can be made much
simpler, but I also think you spotted a bug in EpiData v1.2 in relation to
calculations based on <Y> fields. We will look into that.

The following will work if Your Underweight field is numeric:
qes:
SEX:  <A>
WTDX:  ###.###
HTDX:  #.###
BMI:   ###.###
UNDERWT  #

chk:
* Revised 10 jan 2001 20:44

SEX
comment legal
  M male
  F female
end
  TYPE COMMENT
END

HTDX
  AFTER ENTRY
    CLEAR BMI
    CLEAR UNDERWT
    LET BMI=( WTDX / (HTDX * HTDX) )
      let underwt2=1
      let underwt="N"
    IF SEX="F" then
        if bmi<=15.725 then
            let underwt2=2
        endif
    else
    * male person
        if bmi<=16.575 THEN
            let underwt=2
        endif
    ENDIF
  END
END

BMI
  NOENTER
END

UNDERWT
  noenter
comment legal
  1 yes
  2 no
end
END

I would prefer sex as numeric with proper labels (comment legal).

re Subject: Keep an Audit Trail in Epi2000?
<<<<
The problem of the audit is if You wish to copy all information from the
"old" record and move it to the new added record with the new date. I do
not know any program which easily does this.

It is easy to have the "last date on which this record was changed" saved
with the data. But this would not add a new record. In EpiData
(http://www.epidata.dk) or EpiInfo v. 6, just include a <today> field on
your dataentry form (qes file). Whenever you change the record that field
will automatically change to the new date.

To implement your audit trail: by spending some time on setting your files
up, you could:

You can set this up in EpiInfo v6 or EpiData v1.3 (available in a few
weeks) with temporary defined variables. First You would look at the old
record. Then based on some field (say CopyThis ) in which you entered a 1,
it would after entry copy the relevant fields to temporary variables. Then
Add a new record and enter to that same variable (CopyThis) a new value -
say 2 - and it would automatically copy the values from the temporary
variables to the relevant fields. For those fields you would then set them
to "hide", such that on the second entry they could not be changed. AFter
that you would change the fields allowed to change and then write the new
record with the "hidden" fields unchanged from the first record. It can be
done but it would take some time.

Dear Jen,
Thank you very much for your advices and helped me to fix
my problem.
I followed the instructions from Michael and you and my program
is running well now!
I also looking forward for the new update version of EPIDATA.
To me EPIDATA is very good program to use along with EPI6.
Once again, thank you very much for all of you support!

Subject:      Help calculating days
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain

Hi

I am having some difficulty calculating a variable called days - this
variable would calculate the number of days between the date of first
contact (contact) and the date of completeion (complete).  The check code I
have written is as follows:

ASSIGN Time=DAYS(Contact,Complete)

What is  strange is the fact that this works fine, so long as my date fields
are set up as MM-DD-YYYY, but, when my date field reads YYYY-MM-DD (which is
how my survey is set up) - the check code won't work and I get a message
that reads "Function execution error: Days("

Has anyone encountered similar problems & is there a solution?

I would welcome any assistance.

Hi Karen:

Try this:

if you create a new variable on your survey in format <MM-DD-YYYY> and then
assign the value from the date <YYYY-MM-DD>

Next, the days could be calculated from the new date variable.

Hope this helps

Hello everyone!

if it was possible to export a questionaire from EPI2000 to EPI6 (using =

variables, with several possible values, like:
Variable A: a,b,c,d,e
Variable B: a,b,c,d,e
and get a Chi value (not even an invalid one...)

I have tried this in EPI6 and it is as easy as performing the tables =
varA varB command!

Thank you,

As we mentioned previously, computers running at more than about 700 mhz
cause the Epi Info 6 programs Enter, EnterX, the Menu, and CSAMPLE not to

We have found the problem, and will be able to provide a fixed version of
the whole system in the near future, to be known as version
6.04 D.

Hello everyone!

I am just starting out with EPI200 (I have the 1.0.5 version) and I am =
having lots of trouble especially with the analysis program.
One of the things I have been trying to do but can't accomplish is to =
calculate the association between two variables
that have more than two possible results?
I have tried to solve this problem using help but I haven't had much =
luck...=20
Therefore and to give you an example if I have a few age groups and a =
variable, let's say doctor visits per year, and if I ask for a table =
with the age group being the exposure variable and doctor appointments =
the outcome I never get a Qui value. Am I doing anything wrong or it =
isn't at all possible?
I have tried to use the help menu but it was of no use. I found out it =
was possible but it doesn't explain what to do.

Thank you, Ana Pessoa

if you want to compare mean MD visits across age groups, then its "means" on
the menu.  you will get a t-test.  if you are looking at the probability of
having any MD visit for different age groups, then you may  be wanting a
chi-square.  I can't find that in the menu either.  So, instead I go to
'advanced stats' and run logistic regression  where any MD visit is the
dependent variable and the age groups are the independent variables.  the
odds ratio and p value will answer your question.

Hi there everyone!

I have a question that I am hoping someone can help me out with!!
I have three seperate rec files that all contain different information
about all the same people, with their ID numbers being the common
denominator between all three files. For some reason we do not have the
same number of records in each rec file, which means that there are a
few missing or a few too many records in any one of the three files.
What I would like to do is somehow merge these three files together in
order to see which records don't match up so that I may look at the
"problem" records and determine whether they should be a part of  the
study or not.

I tried doing a "join" merge, but it did not show me the records that
did not match up. I guess my question is: is there some way that Epi
Info 6 can provide me with a list of records that do not match up
between different rec files?

Thanks in advance for all your help!

Sarah:
There are a couple of ways to do this. One is the way you have tried. Make
sure the first file you attempt to merge (FILE1 on the merge menu) contains
the most records. The other way is in analysis with the RELATE command.
read file1 (make sure this file contains the most records)
relate id file2
relate id file3

At this point, I would suggest running a list showing the ID variable as
well as 2 or 3 variables from each of the merged files.  Hope this helps.

Just to add to what Dennis said.

After you do the relate in ANALYSIS, you can select for missing data in one file
like this:

read file1
relate id file2
select file2.id = .
echo No record in file 2, record in file 1
list file1.id ...
read file2
relate id file1
select file1.id = .
echo No record in file 1, record in file 2
list fil2.id ...

and so on.

Sarah,

You might want to select the "include unmatched records" when you select on
your "match field" option. The new dataset should include data from both
data sets, including records that don't match up. If you don't select that,
you'll only see data for which you had matching IDs.  I'm not sure about
printing out a separate list of records that didn't match.....

I sometimes take advantage of the Windows platform to do this low tech
method:

--First, in Windows, I associate *.rec files with the analysis.exe program.

--Second, I then I open each rec file in separate "Analysis" windows, then I
"sort" each file by the unique ID, then I put each file in "browse" mode.

--Third, I put the two rec files right next to each other-- overlapping the
windows if necessary--so I can see the unique IDs for each file, and align
them by matching the IDs horizontally.

--I then page down each file, until I come to a discrepancy--usually an ID
may be missing from a file, or there may be a duplicate in one of the files.
I take notes and re-align the files as I go until I have a thorough list of
the discrepancies... then I make decisions about what to delete.

It may seem like a lot of work (especially if you have over a thousand cases
or more), but it's one way to visualize what might have happened to cause
your discrepancies.

Thanks a lot for the insight concerning this problem however nothing =
seems to work!
The statistics are indeed on and under the advanced mode option.
About the logistic regression tool it didn't work either because the =
only available variables are the numeric ones. Is this a dead end?=20
Anyway here is the problem again:

I would like to test if there is an association between age (or age =
group to be more specific), and MD appointments (this is a multi-option =
variable: "less than once a year"+"once every 6 months", etc.).
What should I do?

Thank you once more,
Ana Pessoa

It sounds like you want to do a chi square test on a table with multiple
columns and multiple rows.  I have not found a way to do that in epi2k.
my approach would have been to make a new variable that is 'any  visits in a
year' scored as a '1' (versus no visits scored as a '0') and another new
variable that is 'visits at least every six months' (versus less often).
you now have two dichotomous dummy variables that can be used as dependent
variables in the the logistic regression analysis.

I always code my categorical variables using numbers rather than letters or
words.  maybe that's why this works for me.

Ana:

Forgive me if I'm misinterpreting what you're saying, but it seems that =
you may want to invest some time in learning how variables are related in =
terms of predictor (independent) versus outcome (dependent), and the =
statistical tests that can be performed given the variable type (continuous=
, categorical, binary) and number (univariate versus multivariate tests).

Dr. Bud Gerstman has produced a very nice online course specific to Epi =
Info on these topics.

http://www.sjsu.edu/faculty/gerstman/EpiInfo/

Regarding your analysis problem, James Rohner has suggested some ways to =
recode new binary variables out of your MDvisits variable, each of which =
can be inserted as the outcome variable in logistic regression.  He has =
also suggested using the MEANS command to test the mean and distribution =
differences of MDvisits by agegroup.  If you have the age (not categorized =
into agegroup) of each record, have you considered correlation or linear =
regression of age by MDvisits?

At the risk of sounding like a heretic, I prefer the stability of the epi6 =
product for performing most of these tests.

Hope this helps,
matt

Hi !
I have just a stupid question.
I'm using ANALYSIS in EPI2000, and I would like to know the command for
"inequal"
(not =), I found =, <, >, etc, but not the one I need.
and how to use negation expressions like "not(x=5 and y=3)" for example ????
thanks for reply...
Cheraz.

Hi, Andy.

Hope your holiday was excellent.

When will we have the "full" ver. 6.04D version.  People are beginning to
but the 700's and I could use some time line.

Thank you. Kelly

Subject: [EPI-INFO] Problems with Very Fast Computers with Epi 6. Good
News.

As we mentioned previously, computers running at more than about 700 mhz
cause the Epi Info 6 programs Enter, EnterX, the Menu, and CSAMPLE not to
run.

We have found the problem, and will be able to provide a fixed version of
the whole system in the near future, to be known as version
6.04 D.

In the meantime, if you have urgent need of the fixed programs, please
contact the helpline at epiinfo@cdc.gov

I've already tried, for example :
"select x <> (+)"
or
"select x != (+)"
but it didn't work...

No, it is in the manual. You are allowed to use <> unless you are attempting
to compare against (+), (-), or (.) for example:

You are allowed to use  SELECT AGE <> 15 or
                        SELECT NOT AGE = 15

Both are correct. But you can not type SELECT VANILLA <> (.)
Instead you must use SELECT NOT VANILLA = (.)

edification,please: can you explain the logic please of developing 2 systems
to accomplish this

so you're saying that SELECT AGE <> (.) IS ILLEGAL, and we would have to say
SELECT NOT AGE = (.)   Your example suggest that VANNILLA is Y/N(alpha) and
age is numeric.  does this have anything to do with it?

Jamie,

Thanks for replying to my query. Your approach makes sense, however I am obviously
not understanding it entirely and was hoping you could clarify things for me.

At the part where you say that I should type:    select file2.id=.

I am not sure of what exactly I am supposed to put in? I have been typing the
following and it doesn't seem to be working:     select x:\sarahkn\first.rec.prid=.

where prid is the unique key in each REC file. Was this what I should be writing? It
doesn't seem to be working and I was hoping you could explain.

Thanks Jamie, and thanks so much to all of you who gave me advice! It's much
appreciated!

Sarah

<p>Subject:&nbsp; [EPI-INFO] Merging in Epi6
<p>Hi there everyone!
<p>I have a question that I am hoping someone can help me out with!!
<br>I have three seperate rec files that all contain different information
<br>about all the same people, with their ID numbers being the common
<br>denominator between all three files. For some reason we do not have
the
<br>same number of records in each rec file, which means that there are
a
<br>few missing or a few too many records in any one of the three files.
<br>What I would like to do is somehow merge these three files together
in
<br>order to see which records don't match up so that I may look at the
<br>"problem" records and determine whether they should be a part of&nbsp;
the
<br>study or not.
<p>I tried doing a "join" merge, but it did not show me the records that
<br>did not match up. I guess my question is: is there some way that Epi
<br>Info 6 can provide me with a list of records that do not match up
<br>between different rec files?
<p>Thanks in advance for all your help!

I am new to EPI INFO and I am trying to teach myself to use the programs.  I
am going through the Guided Tour and I am up to step 10, which is entering
data.  For some reason as I try to enter data, I get a window that says
"syntax error".  when I try to get out of this window, it does not let me
and I am unable to go anywhere else within the epi info program.  What does
this mean?

Jamie,
Thanks for replying to my query. Your approach makes sense, however I am
obviously not understanding it entirely and was hoping you could clarify
things for me.
At the part where you say that I should type:    select file2.id=.
I am not sure of what exactly I am supposed to put in? I have been typing
the following and it doesn't seem to be working:     select
x:\sarahkn\first.rec.prid=.

where prid is the unique key in each REC file. Was this what I should be
writing? It doesn't seem to be working and I was hoping you could explain.

Thanks Jamie, and thanks so much to all of you who gave me advice! It's much
appreciated!

Sarah:

I assume you did

read second
relate prid first

Then you type

select first.prid=.

When the same variable name appears in the file you READ and the file you
RELATEd to, you can reference the variable in the related file by putting the
.rec name (without .rec or the path) before the variable name. In this
situation, you are looking for records in second.rec for which there is no
related record in first.rec

Jamie,

Thanks for replying to my query. Your approach makes sense, however I am
obviously
not understanding it entirely and was hoping you could clarify things for me.

At the part where you say that I should type:    select file2.id=.

I am not sure of what exactly I am supposed to put in? I have been typing the
following and it doesn't seem to be working:     select
x:\sarahkn\first.rec.prid=.

where prid is the unique key in each REC file. Was this what I should be
writing? It
doesn't seem to be working and I was hoping you could explain.

Thanks Jamie, and thanks so much to all of you who gave me advice! It's much
appreciated!

Sarah

Dear all,

I write to you as surveillance consultant in the Indonesian Ministry of
Health project on intensified communicable disease control.

We would like to include a training program on Epi Info 2000 in this year's
activities.
The program would include a five-days, 15 to 20-participants Trainer of
Trainers course, plus provincial training sessions plus follow-up by
distance leaning methods. Target groups are field epidemiologists, Ministry
and NGO staff engaged in Public Health activities on all levels.

We are looking for one qualified teacher who could come to Indonesia to
facilitate the Trainer of Trainers course, in the first semester of 2001.
English will be the language of instruction; knowledge of Indonesian would
be an asset.

Please let us know when you think you are qualified and available to
undertake this assignment.

Send your answer by e-mail to: icdc-b@indo.net.id
<mailto:icdc-b@indo.net.id>

Regards from Jakarta

Hello!,

Tables and Means commands should do the job.
Have you tried:
 TABLES agegroup appointmnt ?

This will cross tabulate agegroup rows with appointment columns and =
calculate for you chi square test value along with p.

MEANS, for continuous numerical variables, will give you ANOVA.
=20
REGRESS will give you Y-intercept estimates and Beta coefficients' =
estimates.

The Statistics chapter of the manual is very useful.

If you have some interest in programming, you may try R. It is free =
software, a language and interactive statistical analysis package, which =
might help.
it is available from:
 http://www.ci.tuwien.ac.at/R/

I got the information from Mark Myatt, who has a very helpful site:
 http://www.myatt.demon.co.uk

Good Luck.

Syed.

  Thanks a lot for the insight concerning this problem however nothing =

  The statistics are indeed on and under the advanced mode option.

  Anyway here is the problem again:
  =20
  I would like to test if there is an association between age (or age =

variable: "less than once a year"+"once every 6 months", etc.).
  What should I do?

    if you want to compare mean MD visits across age groups, then its =
"means" on the menu.  you will get a t-test.  if you are looking at the =
probability of having any MD visit for different age groups, then you =
may  be wanting a chi-square.  I can't find that in the menu either.  =
So, instead I go to 'advanced stats' and run logistic regression  where =

question.

      Hello everyone!
      =20
      I am just starting out with EPI200 (I have the 1.0.5 version) and =
I am having lots of trouble especially with the analysis program.
      One of the things I have been trying to do but can't accomplish is =
to calculate the association between two variables
      that have more than two possible results?
      I have tried to solve this problem using help but I haven't had =
much luck...=20
      Therefore and to give you an example if I have a few age groups =
and a variable, let's say doctor visits per year, and if I ask for a =
table with the age group being the exposure variable and doctor =
appointments the outcome I never get a Qui value. Am I doing anything =
wrong or it isn't at all possible?
      I have tried to use the help menu but it was of no use. I found =
out it was possible but it doesn't explain what to do.
      =20
      Thank you, Ana Pessoa

I've been trying with some formats, and i've come to the conclusion tha=
t
the better option is to import directly from the MSAccess files...

Use the following SAS code:

PROC IMPORT OUT=3D WORK.TEMP_FILE
            DATATABLE=3D "DATA_TABLE_FROM_EPI2K_INCLUDED_IN_THE_PROYECT=
_FILE"=20

Tables does not always produce the chi square, though perhaps it is supposed
to.

Hello!,

Tables and Means commands should do the job.
Have you tried:
 TABLES agegroup appointmnt ?

This will cross tabulate agegroup rows with appointment columns and
calculate for you chi square test value along with p.

MEANS, for continuous numerical variables, will give you ANOVA.

REGRESS will give you Y-intercept estimates and Beta coefficients'
estimates.

The Statistics chapter of the manual is very useful.

If you have some interest in programming, you may try R. It is free
software, a language and interactive statistical analysis package, which
might help.
it is available from:
  http://www.ci.tuwien.ac.at/R/ <http://www.ci.tuwien.ac.at/R/>

I got the information from Mark Myatt, who has a very helpful site:
  http://www.myatt.demon.co.uk <http://www.myatt.demon.co.uk>

Good Luck.

Syed.

Thanks a lot for the insight concerning this problem however nothing seems
to work!
The statistics are indeed on and under the advanced mode option.
About the logistic regression tool it didn't work either because the only
available variables are the numeric ones. Is this a dead end?
Anyway here is the problem again:

I would like to test if there is an association between age (or age group to
be more specific), and MD appointments (this is a multi-option variable:
"less than once a year"+"once every 6 months", etc.).
What should I do?

Thank you once more,
Ana Pessoa

if you want to compare mean MD visits across age groups, then its "means" on
the menu.  you will get a t-test.  if you are looking at the probability of
having any MD visit for different age groups, then you may  be wanting a
chi-square.  I can't find that in the menu either.  So, instead I go to
'advanced stats' and run logistic regression  where any MD visit is the
dependent variable and the age groups are the independent variables.  the
odds ratio and p value will answer your question.

Subject: [EPI-INFO] Trouble with analysis

Hello everyone!

I am just starting out with EPI200 (I have the 1.0.5 version) and I am
having lots of trouble especially with the analysis program.
One of the things I have been trying to do but can't accomplish is to
calculate the association between two variables
that have more than two possible results?
I have tried to solve this problem using help but I haven't had much luck...

Therefore and to give you an example if I have a few age groups and a
variable, let's say doctor visits per year, and if I ask for a table with
the age group being the exposure variable and doctor appointments the
outcome I never get a Qui value. Am I doing anything wrong or it isn't at
all possible?
I have tried to use the help menu but it was of no use. I found out it was
possible but it doesn't explain what to do.

Thank you, Ana Pessoa

        doctor appointments the outcome I never get a Qui value. Am I doing

Hi Henriette: Ive been used the Do epi and I must to say you that this
program is quite useful to understand and handle the epi 6 version, not the
2000 version.
You can download it from the epi web site. Try it on!!

hi all, trying to setup a questionnaire in epi 2000 1.0.5, i'm having
problems importing a .bmp image and working with check files... I am a
former epi 6 user. see the following:

"481: Invalid picture"
        Environment
        Setcolorandimage, Fld

"5: Invalid procedure call or argument"
        Environment
        Setdisplaystatus, Fld

These problems occured when I successfully imported the .bmp in
makeview, but subsequently tried to attempt data entry and when i tried
to set ranges on numeric and date fields...

any help would be appreciated,

e.c. groh
