As Ed pointed out, you can't do it without a lot of hassle.

Another approach would be to make one report instead of two. If you have:

Report 1 driven by Cursor 1
Report 2 driven by Cursor 2

you could create Cursor3 which has the union of the columns in Cursors 1 and 2, add an artificial "Group By" column, and put 1 in that column for "Report 1" and 2 for "Report 2", then set up a top level Data Grouping on the combined report.

Your other Group bands, and Detail bands would need to be set up with multiple report fields each using "Print When": some would have Print When = 1, others woiuld have "Print When" = 2.

Expanding on Thomas' idea, you might be able to use John Koziol's FRX2WORD utility to create and merge 2 Word documents, then use an MS Word Reader to preview it.
