Thanks Janet for your response.

I got the HW file and I should be able to merge with the KR file accordingly. My concern is that is there any adjustment to be made to this data to make them comparable to the current WHO standard in the most recent surveys?

I am interested in constructing the indices of malnutrition over the range of the cross-sections. I have successfully done for the recent surveys but I am stuck with the older surveys and I want to get it right at this stage.
