Figure 5.23 Joined Tables by Row Number
If the two tables have column names that are the same, the names of these columns in the new table appear as “column name of table name.” For example, suppose that you want to combine the eight rows from the Trial1.jmp and Trial2.jmp data tables shown in Figure 5.24 into a single table. You want to combine them so that the new table contains all of the columns from both tables.

In the Source Columns list, select popcorn and yield from the Trial1 list and select yield from the Trial2 list.
Because identical data exists in the popcorn column of both tables, you need to select only one column.

Figure 5.26 Joining Tables Using Cartesian Join
The data in Species1.jmp is crossed with the data in Species2.jmp to produce the joined table, which shows all combinations of the values in each set.
In this example, use the Tables > Join command twice:
The first join combines the Oil Amount.jmp table with the Batch.jmp table using the Cartesian option.
The second join combines the resulting table (Cartesian oil amount + batch) with the Popcorn Type.jmp table and produces a final table with all tables joined.

Select Help > Sample Data Library and open Oil Amount.jmp, Batch.jmp, and Popcorn Type.jmp.

From the Oil Amount.jmp table, select Tables > Join.

In the Join...with box, select Batch.

Under Output table name, type Oil Amount and Batch.

The joined table contains all of the columns from the Oil Amount.jmp and Batch.jmp tables. Add the Popcorn Type.jmp columns, as follows:

From the Oil Amount and Batch table that you just created, select Tables > Join.

Select Help > Sample Data Library and open Students1.jmp and Students2.jmp.
The Students1.jmp data table contains names, ages, and sexes of the students. The Students2.jmp data table contains names, height, and weight of the students. Instead of working with two separate tables, you would like to combine the tables into one. Notice that the students’ names are not in the same order in both tables. For example, Alice is in row 7 and row 9.
2.
From the Students1.jmp data table, select Tables > Join.
3.
In the Join...with box, select Students2.
Because both tables have one column (name) that contains the same values, you need to tell JMP that they are matches. JMP then examines each of the values in the name column of the first table to determine whether there was a corresponding value in the second table’s name column. For example, it detects that Alice is located in both tables. It creates a name column in the new table with Alice as a value. It then takes the age and sex of Alice from table one and puts it in the new table. Then it takes the height and weight of Alice and puts them in the new table.

From the Trial1.jmp table, select Tables > Join.
3.
In the Join...with box, select Little.
You can see that three of the columns (popcorn, oil amt/oil, and batch) contain the same values in both tables. Identify these columns as matches. Also, because Sarah and Joe gave the oil and oil amt columns different names, you can tell JMP that oil amt and oil match.
4.
Deselect Preserve main table order.

Select By Matching Columns in the Matching Specification area.
6.
From the Trial1 list, select popcorn, oil amt, and batch.
7.
From the Little list, select popcorn, oil, and batch.
8.
Click Match.
Looking at the two data tables, you can see that they have different numbers of rows. Trial1.jmp has values for eight experimental conditions, and Little.jmp has values for only four of those conditions. Sarah completed her experiment, but Joe only partially completed his experiment. You want the joined table to contain all of the rows in Trial1.jmp. even if that row in the Little.jmp table contains a missing value.
9.
Select the Include non-matches boxes for both tables.
In the joined table, you want only one column for popcorn, one column for oil, and one column for batch. However, you want two columns for yield: one representing the yield from Trial1.jmp, and another representing the yield from Little.jmp.

Select the box beside Select columns for joined table.

From the Trial1 list, select all of the columns.

The joined table is sorted by the matching columns. Note that the yield column from the Little.jmp table (Yield of Little) has missing values indicating no matching values with the Trial1.jmp table.
