E-DataAid

[David Vinson]

Hi Andrew,

Which version of Windows are you using, and which version of E-Prime?
I haven't had crashing problems myself and deal with files >40k lines 
all the time. I'm using E-Prime 2.0.8.22 (mostly), on Windows XP.

One note, if you have any special characters in your columns (e.g. text 
from other languages), this will cause E-Data-Aid to crash as soon as 
you try to filter (or possibly select) columns.

Anyway this seems like a perfect situation to use E-Prime's online 
support facility:
http://support.pstnet.com/e%2Dprime/support/login.asp
They are very helpful in troubleshooting problems like this - although 
they seem to be deluged with requests (expect ~7-10 days waiting time).

good luck,
David V
