If you have access to a copy, the Second Quarter, 1993 issue of Observations
had an article on dual data entry in SAS/FSP.  The article was titled Beyond
Journaling: Dual Validation with Dual Data Entry.  It was by Jennifer Boyle
and Cathy Brinsfield.  It might be available for download from the SAS
website www.sas.com

> Hi to all,
> I usually use SAS/FSP as software for the data entry. Sometimes I need to
> perform a doble data entry to assure the quality of the input of the data.
> Now I'm used to perform the first data entry in a data set, the second
data
> entry in another data set and then I run proc compare to verify
differences
> between data sets.
> I'd like to know if I can perform the second data entry over the first one
> (without values in the fields) so that when an error occours data entry
> stops.
> Thanks in advance
