SQL BIDS 2005 to access a SQL 2008 Database -Can this be done?

  • We need to use SQL BIDS 2005 to access a SQL 2008 Database -Can this be done? After we create a new Project and datasource in BIDS 2005 we get an error when actually trying to add a report item and hit any data. We get incompatible version errors. Any Ideas?
