**TIP:** If your dataset does not appear in the pulldown menu -> it is not in interval format. Use "edit attributes" to set chromosome, start, end, and strand columns.

**Syntax**

- **Both datasets are exactly the same filetype** will preserve all extra fields in both files.  Leaving this unchecked will force the second dataset to use the same column assignments for chrom, start, end and strand, but will fill extra fields with a period(.).  In both cases, the output fields are truncated or padded with fields of periods to maintain a truly tabular output.
