I would like to know others' opinions about the usefulness of this page.

Also, do you think this might ultimately become part of the GxP guidelines?

[edit] Added plans for endorsement of a Good Programming Practise by October 2009

I really do hope that many Pharmaceutical users have added this page on their watch list and that they will contribute. There is no reason why we should not have a Industry Good Programming Practice. As a colleague expressed at PharmaSUG: it would avoid having to go line by line through the Sponsor and Vendor Practices to detect differences.

[edit] Plan for Review of this Draft Guideline

I'm thinking of renaming this page into "Draft Good Programming for Clinical Trials for Public Review" in order to emphasize this is open to comments and suggestions to be posted on this discussion page.

In addition I would like to specify a Review Deadline e.g. end January 2009.

If you are interested to participate to the review of the comments and suggestions, or have any comment about this plan, please drop a note on this page.

  Ann Marie 

  We talked for a moment after your panel discussion. 

  I found your programming practices document on the web and liked it a lot. 
  It is much better looking than mine. 

  Here is what I have developed and I offer it as a comment to what is on the web. 
  Feel free to use anything you like.

[edit] Code for viewlog macro

The text refers to a macro "viewlog" which is not described

--MichelBourgois 10 December 2008


The "viewlog" macro used at UCB scans a log file and creates an ODS HTML summary with the number of occurences of each search string, such as: fatal#error#warning#uninitialized#MERGE statement has more than one data set with repeats of BY values#Note: Missing etc...

It also list the lines containing these search strings (color-coded) together with hyperlinks to the original lines in an HTML copy of the full log. This allows to view the error, warning etc (also color-coded) in full context.
