I need to pull data from two different tables in order to complete my charts. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/3/3/337c8aa198959e98e624d7c75c3de454333d83d8.jpeg) However, if I try to switch a components source to a different table, the component will disappear no matter how I arrange the content. Am I missing something? ---

Try removing that component and replacing it with a new one, does the issue still occur? ---

Why do you need to pull data from two different tables in the first place? ---

Some of the data I was able to pull right from the GA source table, but some of the data I needed to make averages that required a pivot table. For example “total views” vs “average time spent on profile per user” ---

So ultimately what type of chart do you want to make with those pieces of data? ---

I’m currently just trying to re-create my analytics dashboard for each user from the old app to the new one. This is what I doing previously: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/c/e/ce3a85f75f97c53651ce739f904b0c606a68fdbf.jpeg) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/8/4/848111a713d7b13bae8cf2e01aee09c39df454b5.jpeg) And as you can see here, I was pulling from 2 different tables, so that’s why I was confused why I was struggling with it! ---

I was also able to capture a top ten list on the pivot table as well which was cool! ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/a/c/ac3b876470e22fb56257d8b728997b1507543bdf.jpeg) ---

Can you record a video of the problem you mentioned in the original post? I can’t see why it doesn’t work, do you have any filters for the chart? Try removing any filters to see if it helps. ---

I figured out what the problem was. On the button click, I had the data listed as “this item” instead of one of the tables I was using. However, I’ve now run into other issues because the components options are definitely not the same, and are surprisingly more limiting given that I thought this was more what Glide was used for? like charts and whatnot. I can’t re-create a ton of the charts I had before! ---

So the chart types are not the same? Yeah… I don’t think Charts has had much love over the years. I usually create custom charts using code.
