# Join Subtables

### Overview

This procedure joins a list of subtables into a single table. This is typically used to reverse the operation **Split a Table**. If you've used a different procedure to split the original table into subtables, then it is *not* recommended to use this one to join them.

{% hint style="warning" %}
All the subtables must have the same number of columns and matching column names.
