Following is a response from DHS staff member, Tom Pullum:
I just ran the program you are using and it works fine. (However, I don't know if your interest is in the Rwanda 2010 survey. I used that survey as a test.) In the program you will find the following lines:
* Copy of the PR file for children
use PR.dta, clear
keep if hv105<=17
keep hv*
If your interest is in wasting, etc., then you need to include hc70, hc71, and hc72 in the "keep hv*" line. You would construct the anthropometry indicators from hc70-hc72. The code for those indicators is elsewhere on the forum. They apply only to children age 0-4, but you don't need to change the selection on hv105.
Please actually try to run the program, on whatever survey you are working with. You will have to change the path to the data (see "scalar spath= ..."). Please let us know if you have other questions.
