Hey all,

I'm just looking for an opinion on the SQL Server Report Builder.

So far I have found it very difficult to use. I have had extreme difficulty when trying to set up a report server so subreports can run within the report. I have the report server running but then it won't connect to the webpages it specifies. I have tried changing the service account from the default local to the administrator but this does not work - I end up receiving permission errors. The guides I've read said this should be a piece of cake but the things that should be happening in the guides are not happening for me.

While I find it easy to link to a database and set up a report, my dataset, which at the moment contains about 200 fields, has been sorted as a complete mess so I find it hard to locate the necessary field.

Is this a product that would actually be suitable for end users to use?

I can't find it. Tell me where I can track it down. My website for http://HOMEUSER:80/ReportServer doesn't even work now I've installed RS 2008 on Developer Edition
