I think the email thread got hijacked... but a follow up to the original join question...
Roger pointed out that I wasn't being logical (i.e. appending rank 1 to rank 2 doesn't make sense). ... and if I do this, I now get back what I expected to see. (0 2$0), i.2 2 0 1 2 3 So... I borrowed the idea of q's "reshape" and implemented it in J as a helper verb. So far, it seems to be doing the trick. thanks for the comments and help.
