我们应该使用哪种工具为SQL Server 2008 R2开发SSRS报告？

Question

I have Visual Studio 2012 installed on my development machine (DEV), and there is an SQL Server 2008 R2 database which is hosted on another server (DATASERVER). Now, I have installed SSRS on DATASERVER.

Now, I want to design SSRS reports from my DEV machine. Any idea of which tool I should install on my DEV machine for this? I know there was BIDS for Visual Studio 2008, not sure how can I do for Visual Studio 2012.

Any help on this much appreciated.

Thanks

Answer 1

If you have Visual Studio 2012 installed you can get Data Tools from this link: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=36843

Then you can open "Data tools for Visual Studio 2012" and create your project from there.

Business studio development studio was in sql server 2008 and also in sql server 2012 you can use Data Tools . It is a part of visual studio that has reporting service,analysis service, and integration service parts.
