RFI: EpiInfo Data entry design
------------------------------

Dear all

I am using EpiInfo version 3.2.2 but I am experiencing something
I do not understand. I designed a data entry and created a check
program. For example, I made all the fields to be must enter,
that you cannot go to the next field unless the current one is
entered. Unfortunately when I get to the Access database, I find
that they are missing values. Does any one know why this is so?

An example of the check program that I wrote is:
IF FormID<> "" THEN
GOTO Year
ELSE
IF FormID="" THEN
DIALOG "Please enter Form ID" TITLETEXT="Data EntryError"
GOTO FormID
END
END

The other error that I do not know its original is "operands
must be compatible type for operations <>.

Please assist.

Thanks,
