Hello all, I went through datasets numerous times, but I am confused. I want to outer join all the 7 data files (by the unique id provided to each respondent).

Which column/variable (or set of columns/variables) which serve as composite key) serves this purpose throughout the datafiles.

Please help me.

It's the factor on which existence and validation of my work are dependent.

Thank you in advance.
