Named queries ?

Hi,
Is there anyway i can use 2 databases in one dataset using named
queries ?
here is what i want to do
select name from database1.dbo.employees
union
select name from dabaase2.dbo.employees
i dont have reportmodel veiew etc. I am using plaing old reporting
services 2005.
ThanksAny valid SQL that you can run against SQL Server can be used. You'll want
to use the generic query designer (there is a button to switch from
graphical to generic).
So, yes, you can easily do this. Heck, I have cross database joins.
