Tables: Left Outer Join without changing key names

Suppose I have two tables:

a = table({'a';'b';'c';'d'},[1;2;3;4],'VariableNames',{'Key','Var1'});
b = table({'a';'c';'e'},[0.1;0.2;0.3],'VariableNames',{'Key','Var2'});

And I do a left outer join:

c = outerjoin(a,b,'Type','left');

This will give me a table with variables 'Key_a', 'Var1', 'Key_b', 'Var2'

But what I would like to have would be a table with only 'Key', 'Var1', 'Var2'

Is there a simple way to do this via option settings, without having to rename manually? For me this would be a hassle, because I have tables with 7+ keys with dynamic names.

Tell outerjoin to merge the keys.

c = outerjoin(a,b,'Type','left','MergeKeys',true);

Great, exactly what I was looking for, thanks!
