How can select data based on the value of another data table?

For example, using the "Big class.jMP "data, select the number of rows whose "age" corresponds to the value of another table.

Re: How can select data based on the value of another data table?

Here is a simple example to do the selections you want

Names Default To Here( 1 );
dt = Open( "$SAMPLE_DATA/big class.jmp" );

// Create the config table
dtCon = New Table( "Config", New Column( "Col", values( {13, 15} ) ) );

// Select the data based upon the values in the Config table
dt << clear select;
For( i = 1, i <= N Rows( dtCon ), i++,
	dt << select where( :age == dtCon:Col[i], current selection( "extend" ) )
);

Re: How can select data based on the value of another data table?

d1 = Current Data Table();
d2 = Open( "$SAMPLE_DATA/Big Class.jmp" );
d2 << Update( With( d1 ), Match Columns( :age = :age ), Add Columns from Update table( :col ) );
d2 << Select Where( :col > 0 );
d3 = d2 << Subset( Output Table( "test" ), Selected Rows( 1 ), selected columns( 0 ) );

That's all I can do.
