Hi! Thank you for the video, it was extremely helpful! Most of the other explanations are for single observations matching single observations, you explained it very well for combining single observations with multiple observations, much appreciated.

Thanks for the explanation. Your videos are among the easiest to understand. In this video though, you could show the browse window after each operation to show how the data eventually takes shape.

I just merged two dataset with key variable householdid being string variable in both the dataset. I had the new variables in my master dataset. i hope this is fine, i was worried as Stata help window mentioned that key variable should not be string

[@thedatahall]

Key variable for merge can be string or any other type...but when u do xtset then it should not be string
