Hi David I can understand looking the SNP data values it can be felt that they are different values and hence no result in merge. However the columns still have ~700K SNPs common. What I am looking for is a merge where the SNP and Chr matches. If I match only the SNP column I get partially correct results since it is possible for two chromosomes to have a SNP at the same bp location so the merge needs to take both SNP position and Chromosome into account.
