.. class:: warningmark

**This tool will attempt to reuse the metadata from your first input.** To change metadata assignments click on the "edit attributes" link of the history item generated by this tool.

.. class:: infomark

**TIP:** If your data is not TAB delimited, use *Text Manipulation-&gt;Convert*

-----

**Syntax**

This tool joins lines of two queries on a common field. An empty string ("") is not a valid identifier.
You may choose to include lines of your first input that do not join with your second input.

- Columns are referenced with a **number**. For example, **3** refers to the 3rd column of a tab-delimited file.

-----

**Example**

Query1::

  chr1 10 20 geneA 
  chr1 50 80 geneB
  chr5 10 40 geneL

Query2::

  geneA tumor-supressor
  geneB Foxp2
  geneC Gnas1
  geneE INK4a

Joining the 4th column of Query1 with the 1st column of Query2 will yield::

  chr1 10 20 geneA geneA tumor-suppressor
  chr1 50 80 geneB geneB Foxp2

Joining the 4th column of Query1 with the 1st column of Query2, while keeping all lines from Query1, will yield::

  chr1 10 20 geneA geneA tumor-suppressor
  chr1 50 80 geneB geneB Foxp2
  chr5 10 40 geneL
