Many thanks for the replies and the clarification..!!!

"actually you just want 1 PSU number for each sample PSU, it just needs to be unique across years and countries. So for example, you could generate your PSU numbers by giving each country a number between 10 and 99 and then generating a PSU by "PSU*1000000 + Year*100 + CountryNumber" ... something like that (you could also probably concatenate variable in some way, you just need to create a unique number of each country-X-survey-X-PSU"

So, for every country for every year I will have one PSU. And, this is not affected by the survey. Hence when you say country-X-survey-X-PSU, you basically mean country and year.

Thanks once again, it has been very helpful..!!!
