We have released a new experimental feature called pattern based auto coding into the hands of NVivo 10 users. Released in NVivo 10 Service Pack 4 in late October 2013, it is in the early stages of development and we are keen to hear your feedback on your experience and how this new feature should be further developed. Feel free to reply to this forum thread. Further details about this experimental feature is available in the online help, which can be viewed at http://help-nv10.qsrinternational.com/desktop/procedures/automatic_coding_using_existing_coding_patterns.htm

Hello Venne and MM1967, NVivo currently uses a full text search engine similiar to those used by web search engines. This engine does not allow for wildcards to be used as the first character of a search, as described in Text Search: Special Characters and Operators. There are some changes coming to Text Search functionality in NVivo 9 and details will be released in the coming months. Regards Adam

The readme file provided with each release or service pack provides a comprehensive list of bugs fixed and user suggestions implemented. With the major release of NVivo 9 in October 2010, we will be improving our process to provide more frequent feedback via the forum. Regards Adam

Hello Bert, I am pleased to state that NVivo 9 will support columns within PDF documents. It is important to note that Atlas.ti 6 currently only supports PDFs of version 1.4 (Acrobat 5) or earlier, whilst NVivo 8 currently supports PDFs of version 1.7 (Acrobat 9) or earlier. Regards Adam

Hello Jon, This is a great suggestion and something we will look into supporting in a future service pack. Regards Adam

Hello Pablo, When NVivo 9 is released in October 2010, NVivo 8 will still continue to work and be supported by QSR. If you have a perpetual NVivo 8 license then it will continue to work indefinitely. If you have a site license then it will be dependent on what your organization decides. In regards to upgrading to NVivo 9, there is an FAQ on upgrading. Regards Adam
