BI Publisher Report in Oracle Apps 11i having multiple queries.

Question

Hi,
I would like to know whether it is possible to have multiple queries in a data definition File.
QUERY1 - To find the last run date of a particular concurrent program
  SELECT   max(fcr.request_date) last_run_date
   FROM     apps.fnd_concurrent_requests    fcr,
            apps.fnd_concurrent_programs fcp,
            apps.fnd_concurrent_programs_tl fcpt
   where    fcr.concurrent_program_id = fcp.concurrent_program_id
   and      fcp.concurrent_program_id = fcpt.concurrent_program_id
   and      fcpt.user_concurrent_program_name = 'Get Transfer Alert Details'Now based on the last run date value I will have my main query Query 2
