Thank you very much!

Dr. Pullum suggested not to de-normalize the data. But because I pool various surveys of a given country into one single dataset, I think I need to first de-normalize them. So am I right?

Just one more and the final question (sorry for so many questions), I simply drop all interviewed women with missing value of a given variable before weighting (but after de-normalizing), is this OK?
