I know there is an Issue using SQL Server 2000 Reporting Services and Visual Studio 2005, but does this error still exsist with Visual Studio 2008 and 2010?
If so, is there any work-aground to get this working?
I do know that SSIS 2005 requires VS 2005 and that SSIS 2008 requires VS 2008. So if you have upgraded your SQL Server 2005 client tool installation to 2008, there is no way (AFAIK) to create SSIS 2005 projects.
My guess is that you will see the same issues with SSRS as with SSIS.

I am using Visual Studio 2010 and SQL Server 2012, now I am trying to download SSDT or BIDS for Visual Studio 2010 but not getting that one. I downloaded SSDTBI_VS2012_x86.exe.
It will support or not, help me..
BIDS changed to Sql Server Data tools so just dowloaded VS2012
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.
We would like to start using SQL Server 2008 R2 Reporting Services in our company, but we are using SQL Server 2008 Enterprise Database Engine on a standalone server and have Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate on our programming PCs.
From what I understand, we need Visual Studio 2008 for BIDS to install. Is it necessary that the SQL Server 2008 Database Engine AND Visual Studio 2008 be on THE SAME machine to install BIDS?
Can I use any of the Visual Studio 2008 Express versions?
Just to clarify, you don't need to install any version of Visual Studio 2008 before installing BIDS.
When you install the SQL Server 2008 R2 client tools on your PC, this will include a version of Visual Studio 2008 with the business intelligence components installed.
From memory the requirement for Visual Studio 2008 is due to an incompatibility between Visual Studio 2010 and the Integration Services project type.
Yes, you can use Express Visual Studio
No, you don't need to install the DB engine. When you run the install, BIDS is listed under "client components" (or similar). The SQL Server install routine will install VS Express for you too.
A couple of us here in the office installed Visual Studio 2010 which after full installation we saw included visual studio 2008.
Now when we attempt to open 2008 projects in this edition of 2008 it fails with a long message about not supporting the project extension of .csproj.
A bit more checking into it I see that there are no csharp or visual basic extensions installed for this edition of visual studio but mainly sql extensions.
Can someone confirm if this edition of visual studio 2008 can be used for regular application (console, web, windows) development (if so how?) or if its only suited for sql development?

VS 2010 and VS 2008 UE include all regular applications. VS2010 also installed 2008 folder Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0.. Just simply use 2010 and you'll be fine. It supports all versions.
Visual Studio 2008 ships with SQL 2005. I would like to integrate SQL 2008.
Are there significant reasons why one could not/ can not do this?
No reasons at all, it's quite common to do so. Just make sure you have Visual Studio 2008 SP1 installed for SQL Server 2008 support.
