CIUS 2012

Question

There are a number of variables that do not appear to have any data in them but if you look at the codebook, there should be data for them. Here are the variables:
-HA_Q04D
-HA_Q04E
-HA_Q05A
-HA_Q05B
-HA_Q05C
-HA_Q05D
-HA_Q06
-HA_Q09
-G_HQUINT
-WTPP
Is there something is the documentation that I missed about these variables?

Answer
We see no issue with the data files. Our processing team verified both PUMF files (Household and PERSON), there is no missing data. Data for all variables are on the data text files created in December. It is apparent that the issue is related to a syntax problem.
