I tried merging two datasets for Senegal, but I had a problem because it told me there were no unique identifiers. I tried all corrective methods, but nothing worked. Any assistance would be appreciated.

Following is a response from DHS staff member Tom Pullum:
Please specify which files you are trying to merge, with filenames such as "SNPR32FL.DTA". If you have constructed a separate file and have not copied the identifiers, you can't do a merge. The usual identifiers are hv001, hv002, hvidx in the PR file; v001, v002, v003 in the IR file, and mv001, mv002, mv003 in the MR file. You cannot merge a file from one survey with a file from another survey, but you can "append" the files, which may be what you want to do. Please provide more information.
