Hmm data transfer can always be a bit problematic.. But the software
should be stable. However, due to some memory leaks you might have to
restart it sometimes, as it can grow a bit non responsive when runned for
a long time.

The change of form A04 do have some consequnce for the import. I do not
remeber to specific but.

-Before 2001 DTP was only DTP, but after 2001 DTP included Heb B doses
(basically this means that you must use two mappings, one for pre 2001 and
one for after 2001
 -Before 2001 you had 5 VAT elements, after 2001 you only have 2 VAT
elements. This means that 3 VAT elemets are left empty after 2001, and
again new mapping
-And there were also some new data elements on the new A04 which was not
captured by SISPRG.

Regarding B06, SISPRG colum CS2 I do not remebmer. But there were probably
some undocummented reporting rules which made the data incorrect.

For more see my thesis page 126 and 127, my thesis is located here
http://www.skobba.com

Note that the forms are not always used as they were designed to, nor as
they seems to be used. In genereal the data quality and consistency seems
to degrade as the data moves upwards. The best data is usally on the forms
I think. I guess it sometimes is a jungle out there, but that is just a
part of the fun:-)

Good luck and say hi to all friends in Mozambique.

Nice if you have a digital camera and could take a picture when using my
tool in the field.. Could be a nice reference for me :).

Take care

Btw. Just got a new job assignment here, I am gonna start talks with the
Wits University in Joburg. This in order to send Norwegian students there
for them to learn Entrepreneurship the African way.. So if anyone here has
any tips I am more than pleased to hear them.

The reason computer chips are so small is computers don't eat much.
