Typically, what I do is create a common structure for the report, either through creating a cursor wiuth CREATE CURSOR and manually populated the cursor records with data from the two *or more* source tables, or combining the two tables wia a SELECT-SQL...UNION statement as in:

Or you could create one table with all distinct fields that are in both tables, rather than renaming fields from the second cursor to match the first, then append from each individual table... You might also want to add a control column to identify the detail type being shown so the different header labels can use the "Print When" feature...
