Dear sir,

I found there is a big difference in the number of children 6 to 23 months of age in Uganda 2011 data between the number of children found in the data set (\UGKR60FL.DTA: n=724) and the number of children in the report with complementary feeding information (n=2136 in page 153).

Even a total number of children with age-month information is 2214 in "UGKR60FL.DTA" in the as below. Also, "UGPR60FL.DTA" showed a total number of children 6-23 months of age was 820. Then how can I get the same number of children with complementary feeding information aged 6 to 23 months of age, which were found in the report (in the page 153)? Could you let us know how the difference in the number was generated.
