 In Step 3 of the Data Join Wizard, choose the columns from your layer and your delimited file that must have matching values. The best way to join data is by using a unique common data set between the layer and delimited file. You may need to select multiple column conditions, by clicking the "​**+**"​ under the first condition, to get the result that you need.  There is also a View Layer Data button and View Delimited File Data on this step to allow users to view the column data of each to determine the best column to match with. In Step 3 of the Data Join Wizard, choose the columns from your layer and your delimited file that must have matching values.
