Is it possible to report off of multiple databases without using subreports?

Thanks in advance

Brett
 
Yes and no. I have had great success in some areas, and poor results in others. It really depends on the specifics of the report that you need.

After you establish the 1st database in your report, Use
Database,
Visual Linking Expert...
Tables...
Add Table...

And grab a table from a second source.

Note: you can only link to the new table (from a different data source) using a single field.
