Hi

I have some data in a access database and some in a sqldatabase. Both us the
same index.
I can connect to both and display the results.
However now I would like to pick 2 columns from each and show the 4 columns
in one table.

Can anyone show me how to do that?

Thanks Torben

The option with the least likely instances of failure due to linking
sql server and access is to populate a DataTable for each. Then,
manually add two DataColumns to one of the DataTables and add
the values from the second.

If you build a Reporting Services (or simply a ReportViewer) RDL report it
can reference as many data sources as you like and the report engine handles
the details.
