Hi thank you for your kind message,

I have a small issue again when merging the Mali 2001 wave MLBR41FL.dta, to MLHR41FL.DTA
*Variables hv001 hv002 do not uniquely identify observations in the using data

could you please let me know whether there is any issue in my code,


use MLHR41FL.DTA, clear
rename hv001 DHS
rename hv002 hh_ID
save HR.dta, replace


use MLBR41FL.dta, clear
rename v001 DHS
rename v002 hh_ID
save BR.dta, replace


use HR.dta, clear
merge m:1 DHS hh_ID in_line using BR.dta
variables DHS hh_ID do not uniquely identify observations in the
using data
