You should be able to just create a variable in the initialize method:
myvar and dont use the var keyword. Then in the onFetch of your data set
set the variable.
You should be able to reference the variable in your expressions on the
table. BIRT 2.1 offers the
combined Data Sets that may help in this situation though. Create the the
two data sets and then create a joined data set that
does a join between the two.
