I'm brand new to Tableau.

 

First I join two tables together by editing their relationships.

Cannot join tables on dimensions even after joining them in the relationship table

 

Then I want to click the paper clip icon to join them together, but that's not an option.  Any ideas why?

    Hi Stephen,

     

    Do you intend on blending the data-sets or are you trying to make a traditional SQL-type join?

     

    Also, are both data-type's the same? Unlike SQL which would imlicitly convert data-types, Tableau needs both data-types to be explicitly the same.
