I have not used this enough to really recommend it or not but if you want to check it out yourself have a look at EpiData at: http://www.epidata.dk/ --- From: Nick Drew <ndrew at efn.org> On a similar note, what are some alternative data editors that one might use instead of the default R data editor? I'm not interested in Excel but something that's freeware, easy to install and use. Any recommendations? _______________________________________________ No banners. No pop-ups. No kidding.
