    What do you mean can't find SSAS?

    You need to create a new project, then in the bi category SSAS should be the 1st option.

    Have you tried uninstall / reinstall the tools with the ss install file?

    You will NOT find it in Visual studio 9 or 10. BIDs 2005 links with Visual Studio 8. Not any other version of visual studio.

    Try what Ninja recommends

    Cool, make sure you reapply the SPs so that you are everything at the same level and avoid weird bugs (rare but it happens).

    Makes no difference. You should always apply the latests patches to a new install. The only exception being on a dev machine where you need to match a prod sp level.

    I just lost 1 days work because we are late on sps here... nothing major but it's still lost for a 5 minutes install.

    You mean you don't apply service packs to the local machine? Do you like running into bugs that were fixed in service packs?

    All of them... always unless you have a specific reason not too like the 1 I mentionned earlier.

    SP4 is available for SQL 2005 at this moment.

    We're in testing phase atm for SP4.

    But since there was only like 5 bug fixes instead of 50, it's less worrysome... and yet I'm more on guard than ever!
