ERRATUM. (early paper copies of manual)In section H1 of the manual, 'Data entry from within
Simply Tagging', paragraph 5 on page 5 reads:
'Column 4 holds the number released with tags - this will not be the same as the number in column 2 if animals were killed in the trap or during handling'.
This should read '
.... the number in column 3 ....'.

latest version of the manual.
FAQ
Entering data into a Jolly-Seber summary table
The Help system / instruction manual is not clear about the Delta T entry in the example given. The figure in the Delta T cell for each sample denotes the number of time steps between that sample and the next one,
not the number of time steps before that sample.
When a data file is opened, all the data are dumped into the first cell, rather than opening in the grid properly
This is usually because there are one or more blank cells in the second row of data. If the
blanks are replaced by zeros, or another row with no blanks is put in the second position, the problem should disappear. Row 2 is the crucial one; blank cells are tolerated elsewhere.
As yet, we have had no other reported problems with Simply Tagging -
