RS2005 visual studio design tool

RS2005 ships with a version of visual studio 2005 for report development.
What if I have visual studio 2005 on my local machine. How can I add the
rs2005 shell locally? Are they any license issues?
ThanksI found that if I install VS 2005 after the report designer I lost the
report designer. My suggestion is to first install VS 2005. Then using the
setup for SQL Server 2005 install the Reporting Services client tools (i.e.
the report designer). This will cause the designer to be installed and
integrated with the VS that you already have installed.

After installing sql, the report projects are right there in VS and work
well. Damn fine work on this RS stuff - hat off to MS.

RS2005 reports to AS2000 cubes

Hello,

I am using RS 2005 to design reports.

There's no problem when I connect to an Analysis Services 2005 cube.

But when I try to connect to an AS 2000 cube (Foodmart)...

I have read in this forum that I can use "Microsoft SQL Server Analysis Services" provider (or OLE DB)...

Can someone help me please!!

Thank you

What happens when you connect to 2000 cubes? Do you get any error ?

hello,

I've got SQL 2000 and AS2000 in a machine

And, SQL 2005 and AS2005 in other machine

both are in the same net

I do a new "report server project".

Start generating a new datasource

I select "Microsoft SQL Server Analysis Services" type

And edit the "connection properties"

In the server name, I introduce the IP address

But no database is displayed in the combo

Thanks,
