Hi,

I am using 2011 subnational boundary data from Bangladesh (downloaded from spatialdata.measuredhs.com) and trying to do a table join in ArcGis 10.3.1 with the individual women recode file (BDIR6FL, in excel format) from the 2011 Bangladesh DHS. From the subnational boundary file I am using REGNAME as the field that the join will be based on, and from the individual data file, I am using the v024 field to base the join on. However, on validating the join, I am shown a message which tells me that " 6 out of the 7 records are matched by joining [REGNAME] from <sdr_subnational_boundaries> with [v024] from <Sheet1$>.Matching records may not appear in table view due to join validation errors."

Could you please let me know if I am using the correct fields to join the two files?

Thanks,

Monzur
