Combining Data from MySql and SQL2005

Problem:
I have a MySql database that houses status information that is linked
by a primary key from a SQL2005 database
Using Report Designer in VS2005, I have created 3 datasets pointing to
the 2 datasources. I need to create a relationship between the MySql
based datasets and a dataset that is based on a SQL2005 datasource, so
that I can have all of the data available in one table...
MySQL Table1
DocID, JobID, FKeyToSQL
MySQL Table2
JobID,Status
SQL2005 Data
PKeyToMySQL,Description,etc.
I would like to be able to see a status report that shows...
PKeyToMySQL,Description,JobID,Status
Thanks for any help.Can you try adding MySQL database as a LinkedServer?

I was able to embed a sub-report and submit a parameter to it and it
seems to have accomplished what I wanted. It seems like a round about
way to do it though. I would have thought there would be some way to
build relationships between datasets since you can't combine data from
2 different datasources into 1 dataset. Oh well, now if I could just
get this sub-report to be centered in the column.(TextAlign=center on
column properties doesn't seem to be working)

Combined Chart (One series with Line and One Bar)

Is it possible to create combined charts with the Report Designer Chart?
I want to have one series charted as bar (sales) and the other series as
line (i.e market share).
Want to do it in one chart (not to overlay one chart over the other)
Thanx.Please read this related newsgroup posting:

Column Chart Issue in MSRS 2005

Hi,
I have report created with Reporting Service 2000 SP2 designer. This
contains a Column Chart with Simple Column type. I had selected
GraySacle Pallete for my report. I have max 4 columns in my report.
When I deployed the report on MSRS 2000 SP2 Report Server it is showing
correctly. The style of the columns in legend and that appearing in
chart are correct.
When I deploy the same report on MSRS 2005 SP1 Report Server its
showing in-correct. The style of the columns in legend and that
appearing in chart are not matching. For e.g I have a column
representing "Data Unavailable" in legend it shows as "Front
Slash" on reports in the chart this DataUnavailable appears 7 times
(representing week) first time it appears as "Front Slash" 2nd time
"Back Slash" 3rd time "Straight horizontal line", 4th
"Vertical lines" ...and so on all 7 times it appears different.
Is this a bug in 2005. Its working fine in MSRS 2000 SP2
What is a solution for making it consistent on MSRS 2005?
Thanks in advance for any kind of help.
Regards,
ManojHi
Do anyone know the reason for this behaviour?
I tried creating the same report in Reporting Service 2005 SP1
designer. Still same result. GrayScale Pallete shows wrong column graph
other than those shown in legends
Any kind of help in this regards will be very usefull.
Regards,
Manoj
