I am trying to get a user setup to build cubes from their Vista desktop. They are a remote user connecting via VPN. I was able to find the redistributable Visual Studio shell and then the SP1 for it. I am missing the SQL Server 2008 reporting services, analysis services and integration services.
Where can I find them as an addon? I have been searching for a download but have not been able to locate it..
If there is a cleaner way to get visual studio installed with these services already installed ... please let me know.. I can not easily ship a whole DVD around..
Just looking for a link to download the addon....
Thanks in advance for the help.

When the user will build cubes and SSRS reports the best solution is to give the user the under $50 online Developer edition it is the Enterprise edition with no deployment restrictions so your user only connect to your data source to run code. That is the setup in most software engineering companies the computer is a mobile office.
If you have MSDN download it from your account, the reason developing most things in BI full instance allow for code testing before deployment.

is there a way to use what I have and add the extensions? or do I have to use the $50 deal? Does it come with the extensions for SQL server?
I do not have a MSDN account..
Thanks

You could try installing the client tools but when developing Cubes and other BI solutions testing require instances running. So you need to pay for the developer edition and I also cannot understand BI project that cannot provide testing and development instance.
