I want to construct a file with the MR and IR merged into PR file but it may not help me as I am interested in youth aged 15-24.

This leads to the second question and your suggestion. Using the PR file. How do I link the youth to the mother's in the PR file. I have attempted to do that but really confused. I am interested in education completed in single years for youth aged 15-24 . When I tab, I get 178,894. I then tab sex and get 30,221. Does this mean there are 30,221 males and females in the households. How do I link these youth to the households and also operationalize their living arrangement.

I hope I have been able to present my issues in the simplest form.

I would appreciate your response.
