Hey,

I would like to merge PR and KR files for Malawi 2015/16 data.

As there is more information on child health via KR.

I have tried following the instructions via https://dhsprogram.com/data/Merging-Datasets.cfm

Firstly I sorted the HV001 AND HV002 to make them key variables. But via SPSS it keeps saying that " Warnings
Duplicate key in a table lookup (dimension) file. Cases (records) must be uniquely identified in the table lookup file based on key value(s) specified with the ON keyword.
Execution of this command stops."

Secondly should I weight the data prior to merger or after ?

Thank you for your time.
