</h2>
<p><code>REDCapCAST</code> provides two approaches to creating a data
dictionary aimed at helping out in two different cases:</p>
<ol style="list-style-type: decimal">
<li><p>Easily create a REDCap data base from an existing data
set.</p></li>
<li><p>Create a table in Word describing a variables in a data base and
use this to create a data base.</p></li>
</ol>
<p>In the following I will try to come with a few suggestions on how to
use these approaches.</p>
<div class="section level3">
<h3 id="easy-data-set-to-data-base-workflow">Easy data set to data base workflow<a class="anchor" aria-label="anchor" href="#easy-data-set-to-data-base-workflow"></a>
</h3>
<p>The first iteration of a dataset to data dictionary function is the
<code><a href="../reference/ds2dd.html">ds2dd()</a></code>, which creates a very basic data dictionary with
all variables stored as text. This is sufficient for just storing old
datasets/spreadsheets securely in REDCap.</p>

<p>The more advanced <code><a href="../reference/ds2dd_detailed.html">ds2dd_detailed()</a></code> is a natural
development. It will try to apply the most common data classes for data
validation and will assume that the first column is the id number. It
outputs a list with the dataset with modified variable names to comply
with REDCap naming conventions and a data dictionary.</p>
<p>The dataset should be correctly formatted for the data dictionary to
preserve as much information as possible.</p>
