Hi

Is it possible to have a line chart with one group of colums stacked based
on 1 dataset with a column next to it based on a different datatset. the
catagory would be a common field in both datasets (which is date)

basically the chart would have 2 columns for each date, 1 would be the staff
away through sickness & the other would be relief staff available to cover.

Thanks in advance.

Todd,
In short, no!

A data region can only access one dataset directly.

There is an exception to that rule, but it won't help your scenario.
You can refer to an aggregated field anywhere (except headers &
footers),
so in Table1 which uses DataSet1 you can refer to
=Sum(Fields!MyField.Value, "DataSet2")

For your scenario, you need to get all the data you need in one dataset.

Cheers
Chris
