Tom Pullum,
Thank you for responding again, I have explained the issue further below. I also miswrote the issue in my earlier reply but I have corrected it below.
Identifying variables in each dataset:
EGOB5AFL.DTA : household number (obnumb), line number (obline), cluster number (obclust)
EGOD5AFL.DTA : household number (wnumber and hnumber), line number for women only (wline), and no cluster number
EGPR5AFL.DTA : household number (hv002), line number (hvidx), and cluster number (hv001)
I am attempting to merge all 3 through first merging the OB dataset with the the PR dataset along the household number, line number, cluster number, then merging this new dataset ideally along the same variables but there isn't a cluster number for the OD dataset and there is also only a womens line number for OD dataset. I have redownloaded all the datasets above to double check that it isn't just my version that is missing the variable, could you help with this?
