Following is a response from Senior DHS Staff member, Tom Pullum:

You need to merge the micronutrient files back with the PR file. For example, the file for women, MW_WRA.dta, should be merged with MWPR7AFL.dta, matching mcluster mnumber m01 in MW_WRA.dta with hv001 hv002 hvidx in MWPR7AFL.dta. The cluster number can be obtained as mcluster = hv001 = hv021. All three are the same. The weight will be mweight. The stratum is hv023 (not hv024). Similar for the other micronutrient files.

You will find many examples of merges on the forum but let us know if the steps are not clear.
