Dear User,
The variable containing the state names is SHSTATE in the household and SSTATE in the indivdual recode. This variable contains a code for each state. When you do your analysis you will need to do your selections for that state code. The state code for Edo in the variables SHSTATE and SSTATE is 250. The SHSTATE and SSTATE variables are country specific variables. Appendix A in the final report http:// dhsprogram.com/publications/publication-FR293-DHS-Final-Repo rts.cfm contains additional tables which are broken down by state.
Thank you.
