Newbie needs help with linking two databases in a layout

[ds26347]

Hi I'm new to filemaker and I am trying to link three databases 1- am membership database 2- a to do list 3- a budget database all off of one layout. The idea is I'd like to while inputing a member click on a link and see my to do list pop up or my calendar.

These are the steps I've taken

Manage-Databases-External Datasources-Add

Then

New layouts-Show records from- And I only have the main database, the to do list and manage database options

Tried creating a brand new database (budget) and linking that, it didn't work either. Can't seem to get more than one extra external database to show up.

Any ideas

Hi

Is there any particular reason these DB's are separated?
