Can I select multiple datasets for a download? What about multiple stat packages?

For every study in the archive, you can download all files or individual files.

Individual files can be downloaded from multiple locations:

To download files for all parts of a multiple-part study: Select the "Quick Download" option from the left column of a study home page to download the data and documentation files in a selected data format (e.g., SAS),  for all parts of a multiple-part study. Note that you cannot create a subset of datasets for a single download. Once you have downloaded the entire study, you can then select individual files to extract from the zip file provided.

To download a study part (dataset) in multiple statistical packages: Select the "All Dataset Files" option from a study home page to download all data and documentation files associated with a dataset in all data formats. Once you have downloaded the entire dataset in all data formats, you can then select individual files to extract from the zip file provided.
