Here is another answer from Ms. Ladys Ortiz:

Dear Woody

Variables V024 and V101 has the same information but different denominators. Unfortunately you can't see the difference because when we export our data to SPSS/Stat/SAS, we only include completed cases. V024 has the region information for all the individuals regardless of the result of the interview; V101 has the region information for individuals with completed interviews only.

In reference to your second question, you should follow the same approach in my previous answer, related to questions M38/V415.

Thanks

Ladys
