Dear User,
Can you be more specific about what you are trying to accomplish? Are you trying to replicate a table in the final report? You may need to use the IR file instead of the KR file. You may also want to look at this thread on the forum http:// userforum.dhsprogram.com/index.php?t=msg&th=294&goto =8761&S=6f48f6d155f05ae07b5ce5f05b3725d2#msg_8761

Individual Women's Data - Individual Recode (IR)
This dataset has one record for every eligible woman as defined by the household schedule. It contains all the data
collected in the women's questionnaire plus some variables from the household. Up to 20 births in the birth history, and up
to 6 children under age 5, for whom pregnancy and postnatal care as well as immunization and health data were collected,
can be found in this file. The fertility and mortality programs distributed by DHS use this file for data input. The unit of
analysis (case) in this file is the woman.
