A single column will only work if 1) the variable has the same name and 2) the same-named variable has the same type (numeric or character) in both data sets.

 

If the values have different lengths in the two sets you may get a warning about different lengths in the log and possible truncation of the data. Do not ignore that warning. Verify that the result is as needed.

Thank you for pointing this Ballardw, the datasets were identical in variables and variable type so it worked out well
