Unable to use inner join function

3 views (last 30 days)
I try to join 2 tables together based on an common ID.
When i use the innerjoin function I do not get an error but just a new table without rows.
%% import trips

%% join tables

Because the two tables use different names for the key variable, you will have to help INNERJOIN by telling it the names of the variables/columns that you want to use for the keys. For example:
T = innerjoin(bookings,trips,'LeftKeys','trip_id', 'RightKeys','id');
