Yes, I agree because I only have one household data.
And that is why I tried to use -hhset- but it did not work but I will
try again and let you know.
This is what I get which gives me zero observation when I run reg.
list hhid linenum ageofwife ageofhusband
+----------------------------------+
hhid linenum ageofwife ageofhusband
----------------------------------
1. f2 1 . 52
2. f2 2 38 .
3. f2 3 . .
4. f2 4 . .
5. f2 5 . .
----------------------------------
7. f41 1 . 33
8. f41 2 22 .
9. f41 3 . .
10. f41 4 . .
What I would like to get something like:
+----------------------------------+
hhid linenum ageofwife ageofhusband
----------------------------------
1. f2 1 38 52
2. f41 1 22 33
but I don't know how to do it.
Thanks,
