yes yes…times have changed since this post…but it still applies to older versions of Reporting Services (SSRS) so there’s no need to remove or change it.

With that said, I do know how things work with Microsoft Reporting and yes I do know you can have server side and client side reports…meaning you can physically place the .rdl or .rdlc file any place you want as long as you point the report viewer correctly to it.

thanks for the input though!!!

Open this address assuming you have intranet access
//server/Reports
(where ‘server’ is your server name and domain UNC path)
All the reports are there for download, possibly in a folder as set up in the project deploy properties in visual studio.

RDL stands for ‘Report Definition Language’.
