Dear,
I am really sorry. Your answer is exactly what I want, sorry for my misunderstanding..

I just used the code and it worked perfect. I have some technical issues that I believe you can clear it to me.
My confusion is:

The variable name for Height/weight index for Ethiopian DHS 2000 AND DHS 2005 is HC70, HC71 etc and for the rest DHS 2011 AND DHS 2016 is HW70, HW71 etc.
Since I want to combine all the survey (2000, 2005, and 2011, 2016) together, will it be problematic if I rename and label variables to make it consistent across survey?

Please let me know your valuable suggestions.
Kind regards
