Hi RHS,

Thank you for your reply!

The actual variable, meaning the weight variable? So it will look like this:

use v005 v012 v013 v101 v102 v106 v149 v155 v190 v212 v313 v384a v384b v384c v501 v502 v511 v613 v714 v717 v731 v739 v763a v463z using "/Users/malayaka/Desktop/MWIR61FL.DTA
generate wgt = v005/1000000

tab v005 [iweight=wgt]

I tried running this and I still got the same slightly off results. Yes, the DHS site indicated iweight instead of pweight.

Does it matter that I "extracted" the variables instead of using the entire dataset? I only have STATA IC, so I cannot accommodate all variables.

Thank you again for your ongoing help.
