Dear DHS,

I have a quick question. I am using the DHS 2009 and I am particularly interested in the Height for age Z score and Weight for age Z Score. I have examined the data and I have hw70 and hw71 in the dataset. Can I use this directly for my analysis, rather than calculating the z score, using the z score package?

Kind Regards!
