The Join tool will join on every occurrence. For example, when joining these two example tables on the Fruit column.

 

Table 1:

 

Fruit Quantity

Apple 2

Apple 3

 

Table 2:

 

Fruit Color

Apple Red

Apple Green

 

Will result in: 

Fruit Quantity Fruit Color

Apple 2 Apple Red

Apple 2 Apple Green

Apple 3 Apple Red

Apple 3 Apple Green

Thank you, you are right. The problem was case in the columns (join is case sensitive).
