When can we expect to be able to download the official CTPP2000 data
from an ftp site in flat ascii format? And will there be a reference
file to indicate what the variables/headers are comprising the columns
in the ascii format? On the CTPP beta cd I am using I couldn't see
variable descriptions on the flat ascii files -- no variable headers, or
relationship field and file! The flat ascii format for multiple states
is what we typically access from the bureau when we put together our
data and geography files. And since we have to deal with a three state
area, a one-stop file location has always been the best way for us to
get our data.

Hey All -
I recall someone had distributed an Excel file (from their website?)
with demographics for the US Metro Areas.
I think the file had 1990 & 2000 pop, % change, and journey to work
(alone, carpool, transit) and % change for each. I'm doing a little
research, and wanted to check some figures.
Appreciate any help that can be offered. Thank in advance,
