Hi,

I have the feeling that there is a mistake in IAIR52 map file for States (v024) coding. No concistency with the variable labels in the .dta file.

In the map file:

V024 State 93 2 N I 1 0 No No
1 [JM] Jammu and Kashmir
2 [HP] Himachal Pradesh
3 [PJ] Punjab
5 [UC] Uttaranchal
6

Haryana
7 [DL] Delhi
8 [RJ] Rajasthan
9 [UP] Uttar Pradesh
10 [BH] Bihar
11 [SK] Sikkim
12 [AR] Arunachal Pradesh
13 [NA] Nagaland
14 [MN] Manipur
15 [MZ] Mizoram
16 [TR] Tripura
17 [MG] Meghalaya
18 [AS] Assam
19 [WB] West Bengal
20 [JH] Jharkhand
21 [OR] Orissa
22 [CH] Chhattisgarh
23 [MP] Madhya Pradesh
24 [GJ] Gujarat
27 [MH] Maharashtra
28 [AP] Andhra Pradesh
29 [KA] Karnataka
30 [GO] Goa
32 [KE] Kerala
33 [TN] Tamil Nadu

In the .dta file:

"[1] andaman and nicobar islands"
"[2] andhra pradesh"
"[3] arunachal pradesh"
"[4] assam"
"[5] bihar"
"[6] chandigarh"
"[7] chhattisgarh"
"[8] dadra and nagar haveli"
"[9] daman and diu"
"[10] goa"
"[11] gujarat"
"[12] haryana"
"[13] himachal pradesh"
"[14] jammu and kashmir"
"[15] jharkhand"
"[16] karnataka"
"[17] kerala"
"[18] lakshadweep"
"[19] madhya pradesh"
"[20] maharashtra"
"[21] manipur"
"[22] meghalaya"
"[23] mizoram"
"[24] nagaland"
"[25] delhi"
"[26] odisha"
"[27] puducherry"
"[28] punjab"
"[29] rajasthan"
"[30] sikkim"
"[31] tamil nadu"
"[32] tripura"
"[33] uttar pradesh"
"[34] uttarakhand"
"[35] west bengal"
"[36] telangana"

Does somebody know which coding is the right one?

Thanks,
Damien
