    Can I import reports developed using the visual studio 2005 in SSRS 2012?

    Shouldn't be a problem. Just keep in mind that your project will go through a conversion process. Be sure to make a copy of your project and it's associated RDLs because the converted files will no SSRS 2005 compatible.

    I agree, no problem. Here's a good MSDN page that talks about what to look out for.

    I will add that anytime you upgrade your reports to a new version of SSRS you are dealing with a new RDL XML schema which means that any queries written against the ReportServerDB (catalog.content) will likely need to be updated or completely re-written.

    "I cant stress enough the importance of switching from a sequential files mindset to set-based thinking. After you make the switch, you can spend your time tuning and optimizing your queries instead of maintaining lengthy, poor-performing code."
