We have a household questionnaire and based on the household roaster we want to select a single women for detailed interview using kish grid. If someone have the codes for kish grid it would be a great help for us.

I implemented a Kish grid a few years ago and tomorrow I may be able to find the code that I used.
However, the Kish grid is useful for selecting a participant in the paper environment where you need to select a random number. If you are doing a CAPI survey, can you just replace the Kish grid with a selection using the random function?

This is for something that I did in 2011. The Kish grid was declared in PROC GLOBAL:
PROC GLOBAL
array kishGrid(8,6) = 1 1 1 1 1 1
1 1 1 1 2 2
1 1 1 2 2 2
1 1 2 2 3 3
1 2 2 3 4 4
1 2 3 3 3 5
1 2 3 4 5 5
1 2 3 4 5 6;
Then, after the population roster was filled, this question was asked:
What Kish Grid table number has been assigned to this household?
The responses were as follows:
A 1
B1 2
B2 3
C 4
D 5
E1 6
E2 7
F 8
And a variable was filled in with the name of the selection:
PROC KISH_TABLE
// calculate the kish grid selection
numeric kishSelection = kishGrid(KISH_TABLE,( totocc(POP_REC) - 1 ) % 6 + 1);
chosenName = NAME(kishSelection);

Hi Rama,
Often a Kish grid is a 10x10 matrix. One indice (say X) is taken from the last digit of one of the ID # (that indice would go from 0-9). The other indice (say Y), corresponds to how many people meet the selection criteria (that indice would go from 1-10). If this is a household, generally you will never have more than 10 people that meet your criteria. If you do, then subtract 10 from the #. For your QRE, Y would be calculated as:
Y = count (PERSON_REC where Q106=1 and Q107=1);
Once you know that #, and if it is non-zero, you can just lookup the value in your Kish grid.
If your household number was 4 digits, then the rest of the logic would read:
if Y then
if Y > 10 then Y = Y-10; endif; // in case more than 10 people meet this condition
X = HH_NUM - (int(HH_NUM*0.1)*10); // strip off the last #
Selected_Person = KishArr (X, Y); // use that last # as one of the indices
endif;
