Andy, I wonder if this presentation on nutritional anthropometry in children would help you with ideas for your mobile app. http://www.gfmer.ch/Medical_education_En/Cameroon/Pdf/Anthropometry.pdf
I just got an iPhone and would LOVE an open epi app! Are you planning on using GPS - i.e. giving the user the ability to record a GPS location when entering data? Thanks for your work!

I think in theory it is around 2 billion. In practice, I have created datasets of a million or two records, and can do frequencies and cross-tabs in acceptable times. Our clinic in La Romana had about 1500 fairly substantial patient records with up to 98 related visit records for each patient. Searching for a record got to be a bit draggy during data entry, but was improved by using the Compact Data utility at regular intervals. What I have said applies to number of Records, since you asked about records, and not number of fields (variables) in a record.

How many records can an EpiInfo data set hold?

I'm working on OpenEpi to make it run easily on iPhones and Android phones. Once this is completed, it could provide a platform for developing nutrition applications. Can someone suggest what features are most needed for nutritional anthropometry?

Thanks, as a pediatric Endocrinologist I follow many diverse children for growth issues. Having a mobile app would help. Also adding a growth velocity to the calcualtions would be a definite boon to me and to payers who need that data.

Michael - it's being considered. However, spending time developing something like an iphone app may seem like a gross waste of funds if we don't have the proper justification. We will look to you and the rest of the public health community to generate a demand for such an application. Keep the discussion alive and thanks for using Epi Info.

I would like to say thank you to the Epi Info group at CDC for the free Introductory Epi info training offered in february. I am a new user to Epi info and it was a really great learning opportunity and I hope the CDC organizes more training like this kind in the future.

Greetings,

Can you please re-post your question on the discussion forums? We can provide a more detailed answer there.

The short answer is that Epi Report's style sheet function does not work when Internet Explorer 7 is installed on the computer. You must be using Internet Explorer 6, although many of our users have reported that upgrading to Internet Explorer 8 solves this problem.
