Choose two columns from two different tables

Hi,

I like to choose two columns from two different tables (data table dt1, and dt2) and I ran the below script and it lists the varaibles names for data table dt1 only. Is there an issue with my script? I appreciate your help.

 

 

xvar = .;
yvar = .;
win = New Window( "Choose Two More Variables for Matching",
<<MODAL></MODAL>

Thanks. It works.

Re: Choose two columns from two different tables

The Scripting Index and teh JSL Syntax reference shows the proper syntax to be

Col List Box(<Data Table ("name" )>, <"all"|"character"|"numeric">, ....). See a modification of your script, using the Data Table( ) syntax seems to work. However, you cannot use these in one analysis or platform call unless the columns are in the same table or a the two tables are virtually linked.

 

dt1 = Open("$sample_data/big class.jmp");
dt2 = open("$sample_data/big class families.jmp");

xvar = .;
yvar = .;

win = New Window( "Choose Two More Variables for Matching", 
 <<MODAL></MODAL>
