Interpretation of Concatenation

In the book Qlikview 11 for Developers, an example of a "concatenation" as in the following script is given:

Table1:

LOAD * INLINE

[

A, B, C

1, 1, 1

2, 2, 2

3, 3, 3

];

CONCATENATE (Table1)

LOAD * INLINE

[

B, C, D

2, 2, 2

3, 3, 3

5, 5, 5

];

with the following result as given in the book:

Table1

A     B     C     D

1     1     1    

2     2     2

3     3     3

       2     2       2

       3     3       3

       5     5       5

But when I run the code, I get a "merging" of the table values as follows:

A     B     C     D

1     1      1     2

2     2      2     3

3     3      3     5

        5      5    

Based on the example in the book, a "concatenation" should not be merging [if I have that verb correct] the common table values but should instead display all duplicated values as entered.  Is the book sample wrong or am I missing something?

Thanks

Dave

I just copied that code into a qvw and got the exact result in the book.  Maybe try the script again?
