Thank you for the clarification.

However, I am still having trouble with merging the KR, HR and WI files. Whenever I merge KR and HR file, it turns out fine.
When I merge those two files together with WI, the variables in the WI files disappears (the actual variable still exist but the observations are missing or labeled in STATA as a dot).
This is also what happens when I merge the HR and WI files together, it turns out fine. When I merge those two files together with KR, variables that I need disappears.

Again, I did not have trouble doing this for 1993, only in 1998. I was able to merge the KR, HR and WI file without a problem.
