Thank you for replying, Janet & Tom.

I am working with the Philippine National DHS data 2017 and 2022. The analysis plan is to compare the proportions or percentage of women having 4+ and 8+ antenatal care visits, so it will not be a case-by-case merge.

I have found the relevant files used for reporting Antenatal Care in both datasets: KR or IR file in 2017 and NR file in 2022. Is there a way I can obtain variables for antenatal care from different files to make this proposed comparative analysis? Because if this will be too complicated, I will change my project proposal and work on a research question focused purely on the 2022 Philippine NDHS dataset.

Again, Thank you very much for your help.
