NOTE: The Census Bureau has reissued the CPS All Files disc (C2-C03-ALLF-02-US1) with corrected data. Customers who purchased this disc before November 25, 2003 are asked to return the file for a replacement. Others who are using the file should check to be sure they are using the corrected file. There was a data processing error in the creation of occupation codes for "one's main job last year." The error affected 113 person records. The variable "PEIOOCC" ("person's edited industry and occupation code") had values that were not listed in the documented list of occupation codes (Appendix B); therefore, they could not be associated with any occupation. The replacement product has correct codes for these 113 records.
