I am trying to merge PR and IR for NFHS 4. I want to link the mothers in the women file with their children in the PR file. I am taking V001, V002 and V003 from Women file and HV001, HV002 and HV112 from IR file as unique identifiers. With HV112 i am trying to link the mothers line number with V003 (mothers line number in the IR file. I would like to know if the process followed is correct. Kindly help.

Please see the PDF of the Guide to DHS Statistics, search for Matching and Merging Datasets, and see the examples in this section. You can also search the forum - there are several posts on merging.
