DHS data extractors for Stata

Listed in Harvard Dataverse

This package contains two files designed to help read individual level DHS data into Stata.

Description

The first file addresses the problem that versions of Stata before Version 7/SE will read in only up to 2047 variables and most of the individual files have more variables than that. The file will read in the .do, .dct and .dat file and output new .do and .dct files with only a subset of the variables specified by the user.

The second file deals with earlier DHS surveys in which .do and .dct file do not exist and only .sps and .sas files are provided. The file will read in the .sas and .sps files and output a .dct and .do file. If necessary the first file can then be run again to select a subset of variables.
