Report Service Project template is only available in VS 2008 when install SQL Server 2008.
Even VS 2010 utilmate have no this template. How to add it to VS 2010?
You cannot. VS 2010 doesn't have BIDS and therefore you cannot create SSRS reports in VS 2010. You'll have to use VS 2008 (as I do) or use Report Builder 2 or 3.
I have been told that once SQL Server 'Denali' is released, BIDS will be added to VS 2010.

I downloaded Visual Studio 2008 from Microsoft.
Visual Studio 2008: (3,30 GB) http://download.microsoft.com/download/8/1/d/81d3f35e-fa03-485b-953b-ff952e402520/VS2008ProEdition90dayTrialENUX1435622.iso
Final objective is to use SQL Server agent to execute SSIS tasks and later build an ASP.NET website to show SSRS reports.
After Visual Studio installation, I can't find SSIS and SSRS options inside.
I know SSIS and SSRS is part of SQL Server 2008 R2 Standard installation. Any idea how I can include it in my Visual Studio as an add on ? My SQL Server is running on another server. If I install VS which part of the SQL Server installation, I don't have the ASP.Net option.
Hope you can give me some advice. Thanks.
Run the SQL Server installation and look for the component:
Business Intelligence Development Studio add-ins to Microsoft Visual Studio
We have Visual Studio 2010 with .Net Framework 4.5
and SQL Server version 2008.
We are in the process of migrating SQL Serer 2008 to 2014.
I want to know the steps to migrate to 2014 and is there any settings or extensions or updates to be done for Visual Studio to make it compatible with SQL Server 2014?
For full support of SQL Server 2014 inside Visual Studio, you need to run at least Visual Studio 2012 and have SSDT installed as outlined here.
However, to connect to SQL Server from your application or from Visual Studio and to do basic operations against the database no update to Visual Studio 2010 is required.
I was using reportviewer 2010 control in visual studio 2010 but i need to start using reportviewer 2012. How can I use the new ASP.NET webforms ReportViewer 2012 control in Visual Studio 2010 (without moving up to visual studio 2012)? Eventually I want to move up to Visual Studio 2012 and dotnet 4.5 but I'd prefer to keep using dotnet 4.0 and Visual Studio 2010 for a little while longer.
I think you are asking how you can 'create reports' for SSRS by the sounds of it, not just display them. Okay so this will sound weird but you need SQL Server 2012 either Enterprise, Developer, Standard with Advanced Tools edition. Any one of those should suffice to get you the tool you need. If you are looking to 'design' reports the tool is an add on to Visual Studio called 'Business Intelligence Development Studio', BIDS for short. For some reason it shows up now as 'SQL Server Data Tools' under 'All Programs' on Windows. You can thank Microsoft for making this version as confusing as possible to people looking to get into SSRS.
To install it you simply install all of SQL Server and when you get to the 'Features' section ensure that BIDS is selected. The version of BIDS IS NOT ON VS 2012, it is on VS 2010. For some reason the SQL team did not make the deployment of SQL Server coincide with Visual Studio so it goes along with VS 2010, NOT 2012. A great many people get this confused but I can say for a fact SSRS is an extension of BIDS, which in turn is an extension of Visual Studio. Not the other way around. You can create localized reports in VS 2012 that are 'rdlc' files but not the full blown SSRS you deploy to a server there.
Perhaps I am missing something obvious, but I cannot find a way to add a Document Map to an RDLC file from within Visual Studio 2010 (or the stand-alone "Report Builder 2.0" for that matter).
I previous versions, such as 2005 and 2008, this was a simple matter of adding a document map label to a report item. But the property "Document Map Label" is no longer present.
Furthermore, I can't find a way to add a bookmark either.
If anyone can shed some light on this, that would be great!!
Thanks!
I'm not sure exactly which version you are referring to. Visual Studio 2010 does not support Business Intelligence Development Studio (BIDS) If you install BIDS from the SQL Server 2008 R2 disk it will install the shell of Visual Studio 2008. If you already have Visual Studio 2010, installing BIDS will still install the 2008 shell of visual studio and will load that if you try to make BI projects. If you install it from SQL Server 2012 it will install the SQL Server Data Tools (SSDT), which uses the Visual Studio 2010 Shell. I suppose that's the version you mean.
I've checked my version of BIDS from SQL Server 2008R2 and all the objects added to a report do have the DocumentMapLabel property. I've also just checked my SSDT from SQL 2012 and the property is still there. Select an object on the report and look in the properties window under "Other".
I am building SharePoint 2010 application using Visual Studio 2010 and the database is SQL Server 2008 R2, Enterprise version. Now I need to create SSRS reports in our application. I need to create a separate project for Reporting, but could find report project template and not even the business Intelligence section. Can someone guide me creating SSRS reports in specified environment and connect to SharePoint 2010.
To create SSRS 2008 and SSRS 2008R2 projects, you'll be using BIDS (Business Intelligence Developer Studio), which runs in Visual Studio 2008. If you install SQL 2012 Developer Tools, this integrates with Visual Studio 2010, and you can target SSRS 2008R2. If you do not have access to 2012, you're stuck with VS2008.
