Hi,
I'm using the Household Data - Household Recode (HR). What I don't understand is why would the variables go all the way up to _24? I've read the recode postings, but I still can't figure out the logic to this coding. I'm also curious if I would be able to just combine all the variables 01-24 into one variable, but there doesn't seem to be any information on the subject. Maybe there is a very easy solution to this question but I would really appreciate any advice on how to solve it.

Thank you.
