Oh my. My mistake. I am so sorry. This is not my expertise by a long shot, so I truly apologize. Yes, got it to work! Thank you!

Another question, will I need to do weights on STATA 11.2 for these (ie. will I need to download the sample weight variable "v005") for simple crosstabs? If so, would you happen to know what the STATA code I need? Is it:

generate wgt = v005/1000000
tab v005 [iweight=wgt]

When I run this on STATA, I do not get the same outputs for my cross tabs as the outputs on the DHS. For instance:

Percent of youth ages 20-24 who control their own cash earnings
DHS: Females (35.2%); Males (47.9%)
STATA 11.2: Females: 34.36%; Males (50%)

Any thoughts why?

Thank you again for all your help.
