Is it possible to write a report in VS2005 that will run on SqlServer 2000? Are there any options that I can select to do this? The Report Definition Language is different and nothing is working.

Reporting Services uses data sources to connect to wherever the data is. This data source can be SQL Server 2000, 2005, 7.0, 6.5, Oracle, Files, etc... You just need a data source that points to your data.

Sql Server 2000 Reporting Services had to be installed on my machine (I only had 2005 services). I then had to create a new VS2003 project and past the main XML from my VS2005 projects into the 2003. Wasn't too bad.

Thanks.
