*Between 2002 and 2003 the uncompressed file size increased greatly. This increase is a result of the phased implementation of the newly revised U.S. Standard Certificate of Live Birth and a consequent need for a much longer record length. If you have difficulty unzipping these files, you may need to use different compression software such as the newest versions of WinZip or WinRAR.
