How to display two tables in one search?

[multipro]

I am working on a new application requiring a single search and report which merges two sources of information into one data retrieval step for the user. Both sources of data have a similar record structure and could use the same table definition. One of the information sources is controlled by an external party who provides data for periodic import. The other information is collected using a web form. One option is to incorporate both sources of information into the same table. However this creates comingled data that is hard to refresh with the periodic updates. Is there a way to create a view joining two tables such that one of these tables would be populated using webforms and the other table would be refreshed using import & replace?

Hi,

Also with the new Caspio Bridge you can edit/update ONE of the tables coming from the View.
