Dear Nick,
    Thanks for reporting this.  This was a bug that crept in just a few days ago.  Data was being shifted to the wrong column in the spreadsheet.  Leonid has fixed it now.  If you get a new version of CLAN from the web, the bug should be gone.

I have quickly looked at her transcript and the procedure for running KIDEVAL and both of these seem to be okay. I was wondering if something had gone wrong with the standardisation? The child is on the young side (age band 1;6 to 1;11) and I was wondering if this might something to do with the odd result.
