Thanks for the response, i noticed my mistake and have corrected that already, also, i have gotten my target population size estimation for women 15-49 from countries census and UN datas. But after denormalization, using this formula; V005*=V005×(total females age 15-49 in the country at the time of the survey)/(number of women age 15-49 interviewed in the survey) and applying the denormalized weights, am getting a total sample size of 9,954329 cases for all the countries in my analysis. The total unweight sample was 25,438. Is there something i am doing wrong as the number of cases is too large while using the denormalized weights and will affect the bivaraite analysis in terms of significance. Note, i did the denormalization seperately for each country and did not use V005*=V005×(total females age 15-49 in all the countries at the time of the survey)/(number of women age 15-49 in all the countries interviewed in the survey)

Thanks.
