Dr. Boyle: good morning. Thanks very much for your response. I understand the process, and will execute it as advised.

I have a related question: do i have to go through de-normalizing the weights since I am pooling the data for recent surveys only?

And if so, how will these work?

Do I denormalize after I've merged both IPUMS and the DHS data or before/separately, and then merge them.

Thanks - Yawo
