Dear User, looking at weighted frequencies for Ghana DHS 2008 and looking at B11, there are no missings in the frequencies. Can you please be more specific on what you are trying to accomplish? Are there certain tables you are looking at in the final reports? If you do find missings, it means "This question should have been answered by the respondent, but the questionnaire contained no information for this variable (missing data). This code is mainly used in paper based surveys." The codes are something like 9999, 999, 99, or 9 depending on how many digits in the field needed to enter a response. There are definitions for this in The Standard Recode Manual.
