Hi:
So let's take a look at one possible (theoretical) example of "fake" data from 2 of the files...If the data looked like something like this for RR1 and RR2:
[pre]
RR1
Date PRED1 x1 x2 x3
01/01/2010 111 1 2 3
01/02/2010 222 4 5 6
RR2
Date PRED2 y1 y2 x3
01/01/2010 333 4 5 6
01/02/2010 444 7 8 9
01/03/2010 555 9 8 7
[/pre]
What would you expect the results to look like:
Concatenated Results
[pre]
Date PRED1 PRED2
01/01/2010 111 .
01/01/2010 . 333
01/02/2010 222 .
01/02/2010 . 444
01/03/2010 . 555
[/pre]
Merged or Joined Results
[pre]
Date PRED1 PRED2
01/01/2010 111 333
01/02/2010 222 444
01/03/2010 . 555
[/pre]
The way the data looks and the desired result will determine the method you use to bring the files together, as described here:
