I have a question on setting the correct design for a multi-stage 
stratified design. It is an official household survey, were the strata 
are formed by using (known) population census data, and only one 
individual is randomly selected among the (number known) eligible 
individuals (employees) in each household. The dataset also includes 
raked weights (they call it post-stratification weights), for population 
totals of four relevant variables (age and sex -6-, occupation -8-, 
industry -4-, province -3-).
The question is which svyset must I use with Stata in order to get 
correct standard errors?
Thanks in advance.
