How to join 2 QVD with same column Name

Hi All,

I have 2 qvd's (QVD 1 and QVD2) with below structure

Table1:

Load C1, C2, C3 from QVD1;

Table 2:

Load C1, C2, C4 from QVD2;

Now if I want to do left join then where should I specify on which column join should happen. In this case 2 column are same C1 and C2 but I want join these two QVD only on column C1.

Is it possible? please suggest how to achieve this

 

Thanks

To avoid join on C2 add alias name to C2 as C21

Just put left join between two tables

Aiias the name of one or both C2 fields to different names, for example:

Table1:
Load C1, C2 as T1.C2, C3 from QVD1;

Join (Table1)
Load C1, C2 as T2.C2, C4 from QVD2;

Is there any way we can see  or validate on what columns joins have been created? 

If there are 15 column in a table and 10 column have same name then we need to rename all 10 columns? Is there any work around for this?
