B11 is a multiple occurring variable, and each occurrence of every multiple variable must have its own name because statistical packages do not generally support the use of arrays or subscripts. So for example, the third occurrence of the variable b11 is named B11$03 in SPSS, or B11_03 in SAS and STATA.

You might want to use the Child file (KR) or the Births file (BR), because in these files, you will have just "b11" for each observation.
