Software such as Excel, MSAccess, SPSS, etc.
The documentation files provide information about the

Data Curation Procedures
========================

Research data sets acquired for our Share_it Repositorium 
undergo a comprehensive review prior to publishing and release. 
This ensures that data, documentation and metadata are available
in the highest standard possible to ensure the data can
be reused by others and to ease its archival preservation process.
The curation procedures undertaken will depend on the individual
nature of each dataset. 
In general, the following tasks are undertaken:

. Data are documentation files sent are checked for consistency and
accuracy

. Variable and value labels are checked

. If necessary, multiple data and documentation formats may be
generated for dissemination and preservation purposes

. Metadata is generated for the dataset and a Digital Object
Identifier (DOI) assigned. 

. A review for possible data protection, confidentiality issues
or legal conflicts is undertaken and if problems are identified
these are resolved in consultation with the data depositor.
