Gowo,

Apologies for the delayed response. I hope by now you have been able to figure this out. If not, I can try to explain. The code i use to link the data is for R so depending on which program you use it may not work.

The idea is to link the biomarker data-set with the household data-set using the three variables presented in the "read me" file. In any statistics program, you just need to figure out how to link two data-sets using multiple ID's. You will work with the variables MCLUSTER, MNUMBER and M01 (example for Malawi data), and you just need to match each participant using all three variables, because all the household data-sets will also have these variables. They indicate the cluster number, household cluster and member number.

I hope this helps, otherwise let me know and I can try to assist further.
