Share Data from two primaries

Question:
If I try to share data from one primary into the secondary, no problem. The problem occurs when I try to share data from two primaries into one secondary. The second primary datawindow’s data is overwriting the first primary dw’s data, not combining. Please help.

Answer:
That is the correct behavior, the datawindow display is reflecting the data buffer that you shared it to last. You cannot use the sharedata command to combine multiple data buffers.The best way to achieve what you want to do is to use the rowscopy command and copy the two primary datawindows into the second datawindow.
