Question about weights to use [message #29868]

Hello,
I have appended men and women DHS for Uganda and also the AIS survey. Which weights can I use?
I plan to use STATA and divide the variable v005 by 100,000 and to set svyset [pweight = weight], psu(v021) strata(v023). For simple descriptive statistics do I also need to use the pweights as I defined them above (using the command svy: ....)?
Hope that someone can help me. Thanks in advance!
