I have 2 spreadsheets that I would like to append the columns and align by a unique identifier. Here is an example of the 2 files and the desired output. I tried to us the join but it's not working for me. The join is only returning 2 records that match instead of 5 records with the added columns and information for those names.

We can use union the left anchor of the Join tool.

Hi @traceystone 

Use join and then union it with the L - 'left unjoined' and J - 'inner join', if you see anything missing from R- 'right joined' you can connect that table aswell with union.
