I have spent a whole afternoon searching for the solution, but got nothing so
far. It should be a simple problem.
I have two datasets to merge. The first one just contains two ID columns and
it looks like:
FromID ToID
1 2
1 3
2 1
2 3
3 1
3 2
The second one contains a ID column and a variable:
ID X
1 100
2 150
3 130
What I want is to merge the two datasets together using the ToID and ID. The
final merged dataset should look like:
FromID ToID X
1 2 150
1 3 130
2 1 100
2 3 130
3 1 100
3 2 150
The Merge command doesn't work well. I also don't want to use for loop. I
feel that there must be some subscripting or other tricks to use, but I
couldn't figure it out.
Any help is appreciated!!
