" is this a right way?"



Maybe, maybe not, but -duplicates drop- should be more straightforward...

Dear Maryin, and Neil,
Thank you very much. i still don't know what's wrong with that merge do-file, but i identified and dropped duplicates by using 

sort patient_id  admission_diagnosis  diagnosis_desc  other_diagnosis
quietly by patient_id  admission_diagnosis  diagnosis_desc  other_diagnosis: gen dup = cond(_N==1,0,_n)
tabulate dup
drop if dup>1

is this a right way?
best wishes
lydia
