THE FOOD AND DRUG ADMINISTRATION WOULD LIKE TO ANNOUNCE THE
AVAILABILITY OF THE NEW VERSION 2.01 OF THE FDA PRODUCT CODE BUILDER
(PCB) AND THE REVISED PRODUCT CODES WITH ALL CHANGES MADE THROUGH 23
APRIL 1999. THE NEW VERSION OF THE PCB CORRECTS THE "BAD PENNY" BUG
FOUND IN VERSION 2.00. USERS SHOULD DELETE VERSION 2.00 AND ALL
ASSOCIATED DATA FILES AND THEN INSTALL VERSION 2.01. FDA IS NOT
RELEASING PRODUCT CODE UPDATE FILES FOR USE WITH VERSION 2.00; HOWEVER,
A FILE WITH A COMPLETE SET OF PRODUCT CODE AND HELP DATA IS AVAILABLE
SEPARATELY.
THE NEW PCB WITH INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS AND THE SEPARATE DATA FILE
CAN BE FOUND ON THE WEB. USERS CAN LINK TO IT BY FIRST ACCESSING THE
FDA HOME PAGE AT HTTP://WWW.FDA.GOV/ THEN CLICKING ON FIELD
OPERATIONS, THEN IMPORT PROGRAM AND FINALLY FDA PRODUCT CODE BUILDER
FILERS WITHOUT ACCESS TO THE WEB SHOULD CONTACT THEIR LOCAL FDA OFFICE
FOR ASSISTANCE. PLEASE CALL DENNIS LINSLEY AT (301)-594-3852 WITH ANY
QUESTIONS.
