Dear Liz,
Thank you very much for your prompt response. However, i am still having difficulties replicating table 11.7 of the 2013 Nigerian DHS report(percentage given vitamin A supplements in the last 6 months).
-What variable was used for vitamin A supplementation in the last 6 month?
-I used H34 and recoded as follow: 1=1 (yes), 0=0 (No), 8=0 (dont know), 9=missing. I then selected children aged 6-59 months (after creating the variable childs age (v008-b3)). However, the weighted prevalence of vitamin A supplementation that i got for all children aged 6-59 months is quite different from what was reported in the 2013 Nigeria DHS report.
