If the community information is basically the same, you need to treat
this as a relational data base. Anyway that sounds like a many:one
merge

Subject: st: data transfer
Hello,
I would very much appreciate if you could help me on this one.
I have a household survey data of about 7000 in 1995 data on
community such as region, number of hospitals etc...
Now I have a 2005 dataset of about 15000 in 2005 but do not have the
community data that I had in 1995.
I was wondering how could I merge those datasets in order to have at
least the community data that I have in 1995 for 2005.
thank you very much in advance,
Nirina
