I want to use the household member file, because I want to get the women's mother's education level from household member file and merge it with women file.After writing following command , my matched observations are 699,686 . But surprisinly,when I browse the merged data, I can't see any observation in vatiable hc61 hc62 and hc62 . I have used following command but failed to get any output in the browse window.

use hvidx hv001 hv002 hv010 hv024 hc61 hc62 hc68 ///
