Exporting DataSets from multiple datasources

Is their away to have reporting services call a dataset from an access
database and export it into a sql server table through automation in a
project with 2 datasources. One datasource from access and the other from
sql server. I can do this with a DTS, but could I do it another way to work
around a DTS.
RandyUrghh, i don´t think that the way reporting services should be used. If you
really really really wanna do this, set up an linked server on sql server to
point to access and write a procedure in which you do your importing stuff.
Return from the procedure some kind of return code to display this in your
report.
But (BTW) is a really nasty way to use RS :(

idea.
