Hi Chris,

My sugestion is to download the epi info version3..5.4 from

https://www.cdc.gov/epiinfo/support/downloads/prevversions.html

Install that version, and get the data files, and also the old
tutorials are going to be installled.

I am very interested in your epidemiology class using R. I am trying
to do something similar, but I teach statistisc and epidemiology to
doctors doing the speciality in psychiatry. I have been having
problems founding databases to present examples to them.

I will appreciate if you can share some information about the approach
you are doing using R.

Bes wishes and blesings
Jose A. Farfan-Ale
