Using VS 2005 to Edit SQL RS 2000 Reports?

    I almost gave up then I spotted the difference in the report defintion line.  It should be schemas.microsoft.com/sqlserver/reporting/2003/10/reportdefinition instead of schemas.microsoft.com/sqlserver/reporting/2003/01/reportdefinition.  So I made the change then uploaded the rdl.  It worked. 

    However I will keep using VS 2003 to edit the reports until we upgrade the report server.  It seems to be more work for me if I use VS 2005.

    Thank you.

    Yes, it is a bit of useful info.

    I only ran across it because we hired a new developer last year (I'll keep my opinion to myself...GRIN) But he thought he knew what he was doing and created a few reports, through them into production and DIDN'T TEST.

    The customer then called our Director, and it was an OH SH$T we gotta fix this quick. I got to looking at the RDL's and noticed those were the only differences.

    Happy to help, have a good day/night.
