### Dictionary questions
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
**Q:** Which version of the dictionaries should I use?
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
**A:** Please use the most recent version of the dictionaries, which can be downloaded above.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
**Q:** But I've already started doing the harmonisation with an older version of the dictionaries - what should I do? Do I have to start all over again?
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
**A:** No, do not worry! Just download the dictionary of the view where the harmonisation is being done; make the necessary changes in the dictionary file (as indicated in the changelog above); then, remove the view and create it again, this time using the new dictionary.

### Data questions
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
**Q:** Do you recommend a specific tool to calculate the requested z-scores for harmonization of birth weights, heights etc as batch?
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
**A:** No. The z-scores only need to be harmonised if they already exist in your data set and/or if there are country-specific norms that are in general usage (e.g. both UK and France have specific growth curves that have been created for their populations).
