Hi,

I am working with multi-country and multiple years data. I have seen discussions or solutions here (including https://userforum.dhsprogram.com/index.php?t=msg&th=7086 &start=0&) regarding how to merge the PR and KR datasets. The problem is I keep getting error message when try to merge the two datasets indicating the observations are not uniquely identified in the KR data (the master). I tried

use "KR_Data.dta", clear
keep if b16>0 & b16<.
**(346,087 observations deleted) missing child line number in household

gen in_KR=1
gen sex_child=b4
gen age_child=hw1
gen line_number_of_child=b16
gen line_number_of_mother=v003
gen hv001=v001
gen hv002=v002
gen hv003=v003
gen hv024=v024
gen hvidx=b16

merge 1:1 hv024 hv001 hv002 sex_child age_child line_number_of_mother line_number_of_child using "PR_Data.dta"

I even tried to create a unique id to see if there are duplicates in the KR using the code below

egen CN_BIRTHID = concat(State hv024 hv003 hv001 hv002 hvidx sex_child age_child line_number_of_mother line_number_of_child), punct(-)
isid CN_BIRTHID
sort CN_BIRTHID
by CN_BIRTHID:generate nobs=_N
list State CN_BIRTHID if nobs>1, sepby(CN_BIRTHID)

isid CN_BIRTHID - return
variable CN_BIRTHID does not uniquely identify the observations

and the list returns

State CN_BIRTHID
