What I tried to do was define an infant mortality variable according to the following stata codes;

gen infantm=1 if b5==0 and b7<12
replace infantm=0 if infantm==.

I am not sure if I am going right about it.
Secondly, if I have to do the analysis for 5 years preceding the survey, how do I truncate the data?
I used the following code;

keep if b2>2008

I am also not sure if this is the right way to go about it.

Any help in making me start my analysis quickly will be highly appreciated.
