MATLAB: Key variable renamed after outerjoin

Question

I outerjoin two tables A and B with the key variable "date". I find that the resulting table has variables name date_A and date_B. Is there any option just to create a variable "date"?

Answer 1

Use the MergeKeys option; https://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/ref/outerjoin.html#btx2pe6-4
