Here's an example, that should work.
It queries two tables from JMP sample tables, and joins them afterwards.
As others mentioned, there may be some issues for troubleshooting, probably you can find something in the log
- the referenced table needs to be saved
- the referenced table needs to have no duplicates
- are the references (table name, column name) correct?
- ...
The keys on both sides needs to be saturated with color, and not pale. Pale means not working.
I had some trouble with it, too, but it works.
