Thank you very much! So shall I do the manipulation on the original cluster and stratum variables (e.g. v021 and v022) in each survey or on the recoded cluster and stratum (e.g. v021+2000 and v022+2000)? Because STATA cannot distinguish cluster and stratum across different surveys, Dr. Ruilin Ren suggested, in previous posts, the method to add 1000 or 2000 to cluster and stratum in different survey rounds.

Thank you again!
