combine tables with for loop
I have been struggling with trying to combine 3 tables while running a for loop.
The reason of the for loop is that the data of 2 tables can only be retrieved line by line.
My apology that I m new to scripting and if any expert can give me guidance and suggest reading for my learning, I would be very grateful.
TABLE CONTENT
=======================================================
Table test0 (this is the master tabe to update another 2 tables' value to)
test0:
Load * Inline
[
key, Estimate, timespent, logged
GTT-2200,,,
GTT-2099,,,
];
2nd Table : Worklog. (This is a table where the key value can only be extracted line by line)
key | Logged |
GTT-2099 | |
GTT-2200 | 2d |
GTT-2200 | 4h |
3rd Table : History (This is a table where the key value can only be extracted line by line)
key | field | from | to |
GTT-2099 | |||
GTT-2200 | timeoriginalestimate | 144000 | 115200 |
GTT-2200 | timeestimate | 44000 | 5200 |
I have tried below script but the table return blank.

I think the biggest problem is that you are trying to join to the original table from within the For loop.
It will join mulitple tables with the same columns, but different values.
I'd suggest you let those tables 'auto concatenate' and join the whole thing at the end.

I don't understand why you want to run the tables record for record but join-approaches within a loop are usually not possible respectively only within very specific scenarios - especially because the first added fields becomes key-fields within the next iteration.
