R help - May 2009 - how to take away the same varible when I use "merge"

Dear:

 

I am trying to merge two tables by a common variable. However, there are a
few same variables which are in both of two tables. How can I take them away
when I merge the two tables?

 

Thanks!

 

Xin

Can you provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
You can check out 'duplicated' to remove duplicates.
