Join Tables
The concatenate()
formula lets you combine two or more tables.
Syntax: concatenate( FirstTable, SecondTable )
1. Check if your tables are compatible
To join two tables, make sure both tables have the same column names and types. The data in each table can be different.
Here is an example of two tables you can join.
Here is an example of tables you can't join, since the column names and data types in both tables are different.
Notice how the first column of Table1
is a number column called Column1
and the first column of Table2
is a currency column called Column3
. All columns should be the same in order to join Table1
and Table2
.
2. Add a Decipad Code Block
To use formulas, you will need a Decipad Code Block
.
Add a Decipad Code Block from the block menu by typing /calc
on an empty line or by pressing +
and selecting Calculations
from the menu.
3. Join two tables
Use the concatenate()
formula with both tables' names as arguments to join the two compatible tables. Notice how you can create a new table with the result.
4. Join multiple tables
Easily combine more than 2 tables by chaining the concatenate()
formula.
The concatenate(Table1, Table2)
formula results on a table that you can reuse to join a third one.
