What is the minimum installation for the developer's computer if the person
is going to desing the reports locally? Typical installation of Visual
Studio 2005 does not have anything to do with Reporting Services, SQL Server
Express installed together with VS2005 also not configured for Reporting
services.
So, which components the developer must add to VS and/or SQL Server Express
to start working with the reports?

Regards,
Dmitry DuginovIf you want to design and deploy locally, you will need to install SQL
Server Reporting Services on the local PC, since it will create a
ReportServer and ReportTemp DB on the local SQL Server. You will also
need ASP.net 2.0 and IIS, but the RS install will evaluate your target
machine to determine what missing components you need to install first.
Don't forget the service packs.
Actually, I've just noticed you are using SQL Server Express
Check this link for product comparisons...SQL Server Express does not
come with Reporting Services

Nope, you got it wrong. The guy wants to design/edit reports locally, deploy
on the remote server. What does he need to get the Report Designer in Visual
Studio 2005?

-- installing Reporting Services - you need a SQL Server to install RS
whether that is local or remote.
When RS first came out, you HAD TO have a SQL Server license and hence
a SQL Server install to install it, since it needs somewhere to install
it's DBs. After you install it, you can always deploy to remote
servers, but I thought you would need your own SQL Servier instance to
hold your ReportServer and ReportTempDB. I am not sure that you can
connect to a remote instance of ReportServerTempDB just to develop on.
Otherwise everyone could just use one instance of SQL Server and all
have RS.
If you find out otherwise, I would like to know.
