Unable to “Import Reports” with SQL Server 2008 R2 and Visual Studio 2010

StackOverflow https://stackoverflow.com/questions/6301792

Question

I'm attempting to use the "Import Reports - Access" feature as discussed here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms156508.aspx

Unfortunately on my system I'm not getting the "Import Reports" option (either through the Project menu or through a right click on the project in the Solution Explorer).

My specifications: Visual Studio 2010 Access 2010 SQL Server 2008 R2 (Reporting Services installed)

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Solution

You need to install SQL Server 2008 R2 Business Intelligence Development Studio (BIDS). This is part of SQL Server 2008 R2 Client Tools. Visual Studio 2010 doesn't support SSRS projects yet. Screenshot #1 shows the option Import Reports --> Microsoft Access... available in the SQL Server 2008 R2 BIDS, which is currently part of Visual Studio 2008 IDE.

Please refer the following link for more details:

Hope that helps.
