Up till now, I have only used SSRS with one SQL database. But now I have a customer who wants a report that needs to pull data from different SQL databases. Some of the databases are under a different instance of SQL Server 2008 on different servers. Can this be done?

Thanks,

Bill

Of course, just create a data source to the server you want to pull data from and you're all set. But you need to have separate seport items for each data source though... i.e. a graph object may only have data from one data source
