Mr. Tamura,
I suspect that the problem comes from the way you've defined the
matrices. For example, this defines two 3x1 matrices and displays them
as column vectors in MatrixForm:
a={{1},{2},{3}}; b={{2},{3},{4}};
a//MatrixForm
b//MatrixForm
Or you could use
a={{1,2,3}}//Transpose; b={{2,3,4}}//Transpose;
Now, enter
c=a.Transpose[b]
c//MatrixForm
to get the 3x3 product.
