Dear Sohelruhrd
You are trying to calculate the stunting and wasting from the data in the KR file, but this is only for children of women interviewed. To match the results in the Bangladesh recport, you need to use the information for all children in the household found in the PR file. Change the hw variables that you are using below to the equivalent hc variables (for the most part they have the same number). Additionally you need to restrict the children included to
a) De facto children (children that stayed in the household the previous night)
b) Children with complete and in-range measurements on both height and weight and the z-scores calculated from them.
See my other post in this thread for the code to do that.
