ies2000h.do J-


Creates household-level file ies2000h.dta. See following figure for details.


ies2000p.do


lfs2000_2.do


adjustments.do


print.do


This do-file starts with personp.dta and merges this with a shortened version ies2000h.dta (ies2000hshort.dta). The file
is saved as ies2000p.dta file, the person-level version of ies2000h.dta. This is the final version of ies2000p.dta prior to
further adjustments made in analysis.do


Cleans up some of the LFS 2000:2 variables, specifically the variable for education and various factor-related variables


Makes final adjustments to person- and household-level files before printing SAM sub-matrices. See later for more
details.


Prints SAM sub-matrices.
