EpiInfo Russian version

This training is designed to provide you with an introduction to the functionality of Epi Info™ for Windows (Version 3). Within the manual, each section describes a different component of Epi Info™ and provides you with step-by-step instructions using the example to practice skills learned in the section. Although this training can be used as a self-study or reference manual, it is intended to be conducted in a classroom with an instructor who is familiar with Epi Info™ and fundamental epidemiologic principles.

All training materials are provided in Russian. Software is included to install the Russian language into EpiInfo.

EpiInfo Russian version - the files you will need: Russian.exe, BrucEpi_Russian.pdf and Brucellosis\Russian\dataset.zip. Instructions for installing and using this software are nicely formatted in HTML files on the disc. If you open index.htm and follow the links to the Russian information, you should find the information you need. I was thinking you could extract from those files what you need for the website and not have to recreate them.
