Is there anyway i can pass data between two datasets
ex:
dataset 1 has
select empid, fname,lname ,salary from employee
dataset2 has
select userid ,total/(dataset1.salary) from anothertable
here i want to use a value from dataset 1 in dataset 2.
Thanks in advnceLook into using subreports.

you know pass data from one data set to another directly
Thanks

value from the field of the first one (the subreport should have a
parameter).
There is no way from within RS to tie one dataset to another. Either use
subreports or put the logic in a stored procedure (but since a stored
procedure can only return a single resultset, or rather RS will only use a
single resultset from a stored procedure) I don't think a stored procedure
will work for you.

>>|||Ramani,
You really need to get all the data you want for a data region into one
dataset. You need to redo the query, there must be a relationship
between ds1 and ds2, or if it's just a continuous list of data try the
Union command.
Sub-reports require much greater overhead it's better not to use them
in this scenario.
Maybe try something like this;
Select e.empid, e.fname, e.lname, e.salary, a.userid, a.total
from employee e
join anothertable a on e.empid = a.userid
It may generate lots of repeated data, but RS can deal with this much
more efficiently than using sub-reports.
