Hi Stevie,

Basically you need to create the net expenditure variable (maybe per capita!).  Let us assume it is called 'netexpend'

The command will be:

xtile netexpend [aw=weight], nq(5)

Hope this helps.

Jon

expenditure ( which proxies the income of the household) visits to
health facilities; current level of education, residence (rural and
urban) and I would like to divide the sample into quintiles (groups of
20%), using household net expenditure,


Please assist the appropriate stata commands to execute the above and
thanks in advance
