Thanks for the reply, but none of these are the variables I'm looking for. I'm looking for these variables:

V852A: How long ago first had sex with most recent partner
V852B: How long ago first had sex with 2nd most recent partner
V852C: How long ago first had sex with 3nd most recent partner

The following question appears in the Swaziland 2006 women's questionnaire: (asked for last 3 sexual partners, recorded in days/months/years)

question 426: For how long (have you had/did you have) a sexual relationship with this person?

So if the questionnaire in the DHS report is correct, the data were collected, but they do not appear anywhere in the dataset (nor are they mentioned in the various manuals, maps, etc. for DHS-5 recode). These variables do appear in the DHS-VI recode as V852A/B/C.

So the situation seems to be that the data for variables V852A/B/C were collected but for some reason were not included in the dataset. My question is whether there is any way I can access them.
