Problem : merge replace update

[Thein Zaw]

Hi
,

I'm trying to merge the two data set (1287 in master and 11 in using
) using option replace update, I want to merge all but two observations could
be merged
but the result:

Result # of obs.
-----------------------------------------
not matched 1,287
from master 1,287 (_merge==1)
from using 0 (_merge==2)

matched 11
not updated 2 (_merge==3)
missing updated 0 (_merge==4)

nonmissing conflict 9 (_merge==5)
-----------------------------------------
I already try
vmerge also but it
doesnot work.
Help me this

I think you want to use just the replace option, and not the update option. Anything not missing in the using dataset will replace the corresponding values in the master dataset.
