Sorry to be a pedant, but what command did you type?
All four of the sample commands posted contain logic errors, syntax errors, or typing errors? Space characters are very important in this type of command line.
These were the command lines posted: The first two are identical and have no space character after "-o". The third omits the "-o" switch. The fourth is not really relevant.
Quote:
join -t"|" -o'1.1 1.2 1.3 2.1 2.3' Courses.txt Grades.txt > Merged.txt
join -t"|" -o'1.1 1.2 1.3 2.1 2.3' Courses.txt Grades.txt > Merged.txt
join -t"|" -1 1 -2 1 Courses.txt Grades.txt > Merged.txt
join -t"|" -a1 Courses.txt Grades.txt > Merged.txt
Please post the exact command typed and run it on the sample data posted and then post the output (all within code tags).
On the off-chance .... have any of the data files been copied from a Microsoft Operating System?
