How to use different length tables to build on other one

Hello everyone,

I am trying to build a sort of calender in which i want to see where my projects start and end by month. For each project, I have the name, the start date and the end date and i have already build my calendar from 2019 to 2050 by month as you can see here :

LET vMin = Num(MakeDate(2019));

LET vMax = Num(MakeDate(2050));

MonthAndYear:
Load
Opportunity,
Date("Project Start Date",'M/YYYY') as Start,
Date("Project End Date",'M/YYYY') as End
Resident Forecast;

 

Calendar2:
LOAD
Date(MonthStart($(vMin),IterNo()-1),'MM-YYYY') as "Month-Year"

AutoGenerate 1

While MonthStart($(vMin),IterNo()-1) <= $(vMax);


TmpTable:
Load Opportunity as Project_Name,Start as Start_Date,End as End_Date
Resident MonthAndYear;

//Join(TmpTable) load "Month-Year" resident Calendar2;

Let RCount = NoOfRows('TmpTable');

For i=1 to $(RCount)
Let ValueofField = FieldValue('Project_Name', $(i));
For j=1 to NoOfRows('Calendar2')
Temp:
Load
FieldValue('Month-Year',$(j)) as "Month-Year",
if(((Num("Month-Year")>=num(Start_Date)) & (Num("Month-Year")<=Num(End_Date))),1,0) as '$(ValueofField)'
Resident TmpTable
Where Project_Name='$(ValueofField)';

Left Join (Calendar2) load * resident Temp;

Drop Table Temp;
Next j;
Next i;

Drop Table TmpTable;

 

My problem is that i have to iterate twice to build my final calendar, first on my project to have the start and end date and second on my month calendar to asign & if the considered month is in the project duration and 0 if not. To do that, i have to have access both my table Calendar2 and TmpTable and i can't do it with resident. I also can't join these table because there are no joining field and they have not the same lenght... 

Do you have any idea about how to deal with my problem ?
