Hello everyone,
maybe this topic has been already discussed , i haven't been able to find any post.
I have an excel file , automatically generated by an external software which is made of different sheets containing different data.
I created a datasource "DATASOURCE1" pointing to the first sheet, selected in the combo box , and mapped to a graphic.
I have tried to create a new datasource, "DATASOURCE2" , pointing to the same file in order to use data in the second sheet.
When i select the 2nd sheet from the combo box, also datasource1 change its setting to this sheet.
I would need access and map data from different sheets to some graphics.
How can i handle this situation, provided i have no control on the file format?
Thank you in advance

But what happens when you link the data to a title ?
Might as well just open the Excel only once and again specify the different sheet to use in the title ( will e less confusing when using)

I did a stupid question, my bet!!
I was selecting the sheet in the datasource definition and not in the graphic field section.
Actually what i need can be done with a single datasource and then selecting the proper sheet for each single field.
I'm sorry

In the Advanced Filter dialog box, choose 'Copy to another location'. For the List range, select the column(s) from which you want to extract the unique values. Leave the Criteria Range blank.
