How to create SSRS report in ASP.NET locally?

Question

I am using ASP.NET/C# .

For the first time I am doing Reporting in ASP.NET .

I created a sample Report following this tutorial .

As far as I understood it requires a seperate Report server to be created for this to work.We don't want to create seperate Reporting server .

Can anyone guide me as to how I can create SSRS Reports locally without creating a seperate server?

Any suggestions are welcome.

Visual Studio 2005 report designer supports locally executed reports, which have an RDLC extension.

Here's a tutorial

MSDN: Creating Client Report Definition Files
