Hi DHS user forum,

I was trying to merge IR and KR (one observation in IR correspond to many obs in KR), based on v000, v001, and v002, v003, as suggested by the DHS website. However, I failed to do so because there are duplicate line numbers (v003) in IR files. Thus, my Stata code "1:m" does not work.

I tried to search the web and I did not find any information mentioning if there exists duplicate line number in the same IR files, and why? I wonder if I missed anything here? Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated!
