		Dear User,  In response to your query, Mr. Abderrahim responded as follows: 
Quote:Code 2 in the recode variable HV121 comes from the question 25 of the Nigeria 2012-13 DHS:  ( Did (NAME) attend school at any time during the (2012 - 2013) school year? ).  The code 1 comes from the question ( Is (NAME) currently attending school? ) which is not asked in Nigeria 2012-13 DHS.  For this reason there is no code 1 in the data file, since the question is not asked, and there is a code 2 because the answer yes to question 25 is converted into 2 in the variable HV121. 
 
  
 
It might help to see that the value labels for recode variable HV121 "Member attended school during current school year" are as follows: 
0 No 
1 Currently attending 
2 Attended at some time 
9 Missing 
NA Not applicable
