Hi all, I have two tables as shown:
Table A (size mxn):
VarA VarB .....
------ -------
3 [1, 5, 7]
167 [2, 6, 9, 11]
......
Table B (size axb):
VarC VarD .....
------ -------
1 "X"
2 "B"
5 "E"
6 "F"
7 "G"
9 "I"
11 "R"
...
I would like to make use of Table B to join a new column to Table A like below:
New Table A:
VarA VarB VarE .....
------ ------- -------
3 [1, 5, 7] ["X", "E", "G"]
167 [2, 6, 9, 11] ["B", "F", "I", "R"]
......
Any help is much appreciated.

Does order matter? Alternately, will VarB always be in increasing order? Will VarC always be in increasing order?

For VarB, you mean the order inside the array like [1,5,7]? Yes
For VarC, it is actually corresponds to the numbers in VarB and VarD shows their "Names", and the value increase down the column.

Try this
if true
tabA.VarE = cellfun(@(X)tabB.VarD(ismember(tabB.VarC,X)),tabA.VarB,'UniformOutput',false);
end

You will need to convert the categorical array to cellstr, then convert it double.
tabA.VarB = cellstr(tabA.VarB);
tabA.VarB = regexprep(tabA.VarB,'[\[\]]','');
tabA.VarB = cellfun(@(x)str2double(strsplit(x,',')),tabA.VarB,'UniformOutput',false);
tabA.VarE = cellfun(@(X)tabB.VarD(ismember(tabB.VarC,X)),tabA.VarB,'UniformOutput',false);
