    FederationDataSource federation = new FederationDataSource();

    Source sourceProducts = new Source("Products", CreateSqlDataSource(), "Products");
    Source sourceOrderDetail = new Source("OrderDetail", CreateExcelDataSource("SalesPerson.xlsx", "Data"));
    Source sourceHeader = new Source("OrderHeader", CreateExcelDataSource("OrderHeaders.xlsx", "OrderHeader"));


    SelectNode query1 = sourceProducts.From().Select("ProductName", "QuantityPerUnit", "UnitsInStock")
        .Join(sourceOrderDetail, "[Products.ProductName] = [OrderDetail.ProductName]")
        .Select("OrderDate")
        .Build("ProductsOrderDetail");

    SelectNode query2 = sourceHeader.From().Select("OrderID", "Status", "Description")
        .Join(sourceOrderDetail, "[OrderHeader.OrderID] = [OrderDetail.OrderID]")
        .Select("Quantity", "Extended Price")
        .Build("OrderHeaderOrderDetail");

    federation.Queries.AddRange(new[] { query1, query2 });
