		Dear Sir/Madam, 
I am having having difficulties replicating table 10.17 of the India NFHS-4, 2015-16 report(percentage given vitamin a supplements in the last 6 months). 
 
I have used following conditions to get the reported figures: 
 
compute xy=(v008-b3). 
sel if (xy>=6 and xy<=59 and b5=1). 
compute rweight=(v005/1000000). 
weight by rweight. 
 
 
if (h33m<13 & h33m>0) month = h33m. 
if (h33y>2009 & h33y<2017) year=h33y. 
compute vacccmc = (year - 1900)*12 + month. 
compute last6 = v008 - vacccmc. 
if (last6<7) lastva = 1. 
if (b5=1) vita=0. 
if (h34=1) vita=1. 
if (lastva = 1) vita=1. 
fre vita. 
 
The weighted percentage of vitamin a supplementation that i got for all children aged 6-59 months is different from what was reported in the India NFHS-4 2015-16 report.
