Hi @Uzi 

 

Is it the same sample data which is used as above?

No it is my own.. When Im looking at the Left side then it is without the right vallue and the middle join is with the rightvalue but only limited to the number from the right table 😕

ok I found the problem. Im matching a text and the text is not 100% exact. There is sometimes a word more in the table which is not in the other tabel... is it possible to match it like "when 90% of the text is the same but not 100%"?

Yes, you can use find and replace thats more flexible.

For this tool.

 

Table 1 can have extra text but Table 2 key should be present in Table 1 key.

 

The Table 2 key should be present in Table 1 key. It works like a keyword search.
