I need to create a report that includes information from more than one query. I also want to include graphs so that the numbers will mean more to my clients. I cannot add another query to my report and I cannot keep my data together. Is there a way to make mini-tables in reports? I'm looking for any way to fix this problem.
 
im not sure what you mean by you cannot add another query to your report..how come you can not?

-Rpb
 
I can set the properties to have one query for the data but I do not know where I add another query to the report. Is this my problem?
 
You can create a third query that joins the first two queries on their common key fields and use the third query as the report's recordsource.
 
Perhaps you need to create a subreport. It can have a different record source than your main report.
 
I had a similar problem (which I didn't explain well). If you cannot create a query that links your other queries, then use reports/subreports. According to Access Help you can create an unbound main report and nest subreports in that if there are no fields that you can use to link a main report/subreport (i.e. customers/orders)
