Thank you for your response!

I now started with the PR file and then merged it with the KR file. This seems to have worked! I now have 949 missing values for the sampling weights but these are all children that also have missing values for B5 or are not alive.

However, I do have one more question. How do I use the B16/HVIDX variable as a unique key identifier? I can change the name of the B16 variable in the KR file to HVIDX, but then it does not match with the HVIDX of the PR file as these are coded as HVIDX$02, HVIDX$03, HVIDX$04 etc. I tried naming them all HVIDX but this does not work.

Thanks again,
Rachel
