Totaling Amounts from Two Databases

I am trying to create a report that gives me the total $$ on items created for the current year. The problem is the $$ are in two distinct databases, one database is for items that are open and being worked on and the second database is for items resolved/closed. In addition, the $$ have to be grouped by customer number. What would be the best way? I am using Cystal Report 8.5.
 
Add the second database as a nonlinked subreport, then create a shared variable. This can be used to pass a value from the subreport to the main report.

The values can then be added. Takes a little playing around to get working
