		Dear DHS experts, 
I am trying to replicate part of Table 11.1 Nutritional status of children from the Bangladesh DHS 2014 final report, and would be grateful for your help. 
I am interested in the height-for-age below -2SD column by division, but am failing to reach the same values, with and without weighting. Can someone kindly have a look at this syntax and suggest where I may be going wrong? I am using the PR file, as another thread highlighted was necessary. 
 
Syntax: 
generate height4agesd = hc5 / 100 
 
count if height4agesd >= 99 & height4agesd <=100 
*178 
replace height4agesd = . if height4agesd >= 99 & height4agesd <=100 
 
generate stunting = . 
replace stunting = 1 if height4agesd < -2.00 
replace stunting = 0 if height4agesd >= -2.00 & height4age !=. 
tab stunting 
 
tab hv024 stunting 
tab hv024 stunting [iweight=hv005/1000000] 
 
Thank you in advance for your support! 
Christina
