Can't deploy. No TargetServerURL

I have a report that I am trying to deploy. I right-clicked my report in the solutions explorer, then select "deploy" but then I get the following error:

Microsoft Report Designer
The project cannot be deployed because no target server is specified. Provide a value for the TargetServerURL property in the property page for this project.

So then I go to the properties page but there isn't a TargetServerURL field! There is only a file name and full path field. Does anyone know what is wrong? Could it be that I need IIS installed on my machine?

More info:
Software installed from http://www.microsoft.com/express/sql/download/default.aspx:
-Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition
-SQL Server Management Studio Express
-Install Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition with Advanced Services
-Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition Toolkit

Windows XP Home Edition

Yes with IIS installed ,you need to have Reporting Services Installed first.

It turns out that IIS is configured but I still get the same problem.

Is there something else that needs to be configured for deploying reports? Or am I missing a step while deploying?

Thanks in advance.

Did you install reporting service on that machine?

In the TargetServerURL mention "http://localhost/reports" or "http://machine name/reports"

There is no field called "TargetServerURL", that's why I can't deploy it. I'm thinking it's an installation problem but everything (Report Services Configuration Tool, IIS and ASP.NET) all seem to be working.

Did you set the TargetServerURL in the Solution Properties Screen?
Right-Click > Properties on your solution name in the Solution explorer

Or is the TargetServerURL field not showing up on that screen??
