ipacheck comes with a folder structure for your project including a master do-file, a globals do-file, prep do-file and Excel-based inputs sheets. Results of checks are exported as nicely formatted Excel spreadsheets for distribution among field teams. As of version 4.2.0, ipacheck now uses programs from the [ipahelper](https://github.com/PovertyAction/ipahelper/main).

net install ipacheck, all replace from("https://raw.githubusercontent.com/PovertyAction/high-frequency-checks/master")

* after initial installation ipacheck can be updated at any time using
ipacheck update

* to start a new project with folder structure and input files
ipacheck new, surveys("SURVEY_NAME_1") folder("path/to/project")

* when starting a new project with multiple surveys, you can choose to use the subfolders option to create subfolders for each survey
ipacheck new, surveys("SURVEY_NAME_1" "SURVEY_NAME_2") folder("path/to/project") subfolders

* to obtain fresh copies of the master do-file and Excel inputs without creating the folder structure
ipacheck new, filesonly
