Hi,
I am not able to merge PR and BR files for DHS 1998 data for India.
For children ages 6-18 in PR files, I want to know when did they mothers marry.
In PR file hv112 contains no observations so I can't directly get the mother's info from here.
A previous response said, "You want to match hv001 hv002 hvidx in the PR file with v001 v002 b16 in the BR file."
But the BR file for India, which is IABR42DT, does not have b16 variable.
Should I match on (hv001 hv002 hv003) and (v001 v002 v003)?
But hv003 and v003 are respondent's line no.
Not sure how it will be right to match?
Kind Regards,
Harshit
