    I don't want SQL2000 I already have SQL2000. What I want to find is the Report Builder/Designer to use with VB programs within Windows. It is suppose to plug into Visual Studio 2005 which I have but I don't want to spend the money for SQL2005 just to get the plug in. I don't need Report Server just the Report Designer/Builder.

    Report Builder is included with Reporting Services. For example, when I load my SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services site and click Build Reports, it launches the Report Builder.

    Reporting services is an add-on for SQL 2000, but it is available. You can download a 120-day evaluation version here:

    It is also an snap-in to Visual Studio. Everything I have read is that you use it to develop reports for Windows Apps, which is what I want to do. I don't use SQL as a database generally. I normally use Access because they are small apps. But I would like to use the Report Builder/Designer to develop these app reports. That is where I'm trying to get to.

    If I can get Report Builder/Designer into Visual Studio2005 then I can write reports for Windows Apps which they say you can do and is a replacement for Crystal. Also that you don't need SQL or SSRS to do this.

    I just don't know where to get the snap/plug-in.
