Hi @Jackie_ ,
You have some syntax errors including missing semicolons after each of your pick statements. Please start to read the scripting guide or refer to the scripting index for additional details on the use of the Pick function.
Try the following script which will prompt to open an Excel file and then prompt to open a JMP data table to use in the query before performing the join.
A word of caution when running the query on the two opened tables; the script will only work if the existing data tables have the respective columns in each of the opened data tables.

//Prompt to select and open an MS Excel file
dt1 = Open( Pick File( "Select Excel File", "$DOCUMENTS", {"Excel Files|csv;xlsx;xls", "All Files|*"}, 1, 0 ), Invisible );
//Prompt to select an open a JMP data table
dt2 = Open( Pick File( "Select JMP File", "$DOCUMENTS", {"JMP Files|jmp", "All Files|*"}, 1, 0 ), Invisible );
//Perform a left outer join on the tables using the "Name" Column
