Is Sql Server 2000 sufficient to use the Report Controls?

Question

Hi

We will use VS 2005 from the beginning but won't change to Sql Server 2005 so soon.
Therefore my question: Do the Report controls need Sql Server 2005 to run?

Thanks

Answer 1

The controls require SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services. To get full interactivity, we had to add quite a bit to the SOAP API.

Answer 2

Hi

That's ok
But do the Reporting Services 2005 only work with Sql Server 2005?

Thanks

Answer 3

I assume the question is: "Can RS 2005 also use a SQL Server 2000 instance as store for its metadata?". The answer is yes.
