Following is a response from Senior DHS staff member, Tom Pullum:

DHS data are available in SPSS, SAS, Stata, and ASCII format. If you open the SPSS version of the data (with file type .sas7bdat, for example), with SPSS, you will have all the variables and all labels.

DHS staff use Stata, primarily, but on the website we have a GitHub page (https://github.com/DHSProgram) with programs in Stata, SPSS, and R for the standard tables in the final reports. Many of these programs include lines with the syntax for weights and the survey design adjustments. I suggest that you look at the SPSS programs to find what you need. Other SPSS users on the forum may add something.
