+First, create a key on the right frame (``df2``). Note that the join key(``X1``) has unique values and has the same name in the left frame(``df1``)::
+
+    df2.key = "X1"
+
+Join is now possible::
+
+    df1[:, :, join(df2)]
+
+.. dtframe::
+    :names: date,X1,X2,X3

+
+You can access the values in the right frame in an expression, using the secondary namespace object `g  <https://datatable.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api/dt/g.html>`__::

+    df1[:, update(X2=f.X2 * g.X3), join(df2)]
