  I think it is just part of SQL Server 2005 client tools so will be available on all versions of SQL Server 2005 although on express edition I think there is a toolkit to download to get it.

  To answer your question you will get the full version in Standard and Enterprise and just the report designer in Workgroup and Express with Advanced Services.

  Here is an alternate link to get at the feature comparison list that might be a little easier to read.
