1) Neither variable v022 nor v023 have been set in the Uganda DHS 2011 dataset. In appendix A of the report it can be seen that the strata were urban and rural areas in each region, so you can set v022 and v023 as follows:

egen strata = group(v024 v025)
replace v022 = strata
replace v023 = strata

Then run the svyset and svy:tab commands to produce the results.

2) You should use the dataset that matches the unit of analysis that you wish to use. If you are looking at child health, I expect that you will want to analyze children under the age of 5, in which case you should work with the children's recode (KR) file.
