In VS2005, Create an empty solution, then in this solution add a new
project.
Under project types you should see "Business Intelligence Projects"
under project types.
Select this, then you can select "Report Server Project"
You can then create your reports and data sources as required, and
deploy to your report server.|||Have you installed the client tools? If you installed SQL 2005 on your
computer that does not install the client tools. You have to run setup
separately for that.
If you installed the client tools prior to VS 2005 then you need to install
them again.

Help - Unable to Add Column to Report
I have inherited a report that appears to be too big for the VS designer.
The query is 664 lines long and every time I move to the Data tab, Reporting
Services locks up and stops responding. (I am using the generic query
designer)
The report runs fine, my problem is I need to add another data column to the
report. I did this by editing the RDL in a text editor but when I reload in
RS and got to the Layout tab to add the column to the report, it is not
listed in the Fields list. I tried to manually add it but I then get the
'Index out of bounds error'. So it seems the field list needs to be updated
by accessing the Data tab and then moving to the Layout or Preview tab but
every time I try to do this it locks up.
I thought I might try to temporarily remove part of the query so the field
list could be updated but the report has the columns scattered throughout so
I can't locate a large enough block of contiguous query data that does NOT
affect the fields list.
Is there any work around for this?
Many thanksHi Mike,
I'm not sure what the preview issue is, but if you are ok with editing the
RDL, you should be able to do it.
When you added the field to the RDL, did you add it to both the query and to
the fields collection?
The fields collection maps results returned from the query to fields you can
put on the report. If you added a column to the query in the RDL, makes
sure you add a field element (under datasets/fields) that matches the column
name. If you did both of those and still have the problem then I don't
know.
I hope that helps!
