• Sql Server Report Builder Download

I came across an issue when playing around with Report Builder 2.0. I had created a report using an embedded data source. Once I’d published the report to the report server, I couldn’t get it to run anymore. Instead it gave me the following error:This report cannot be run in report builder because it contains one or more embedded data sources with credential options that are not supported. Instead of embedded data sources use shared data sources or save and view the report on the server.Okay, no problem I thought, let’s just create a shared data source and switch to that one then. So I opened up the Data Source Properties in Report Builder and selected the Use a shared connection or report model radio button.Unfortunately, when running the report it threw me that same error?! And when I open the Data Source properties again, my change was undone!

It was still using the embedded data source.As far as I’m concerned that should be a bug.The only way that I could switch my data source to a shared connection was by creating a new data source, which means you also need to move all datasets connected to the original data source.Quick tip: if you first rename the original data source and datasets to something like srcMyDatasetOLD, you can give the correct name to the new one straightaway.So I guess that’s another workaround on my listThis issue was encountered while using Report Builder 2.0 (10.0.2531.0). I tried to reproduce it using Report Builder 3.0 (.20 – that’s the version of the SQL Server 2008 R2 August CTP) and I couldn’t. Which means it has been fixed.

Good on you Microsoft!

Heavy weapon deluxe trainer. Report Builder is a part of SQL Server Reporting Services. It is a 'ClickOnce' application that will install on a client PC from the SSRS website provided with Reporting Services. Report Builder requires a Report Model project in Business Intelligence Development Studio (BIDS), which is also a part of SQL Server - providing you choose to install it.With SQL Server 2008 R2, there is a Reporting Services site setting that you can choose whether Report Builder 1, 2, or 3 is the default application when a user clicks the button for Report Builder. However, with the correct URL, you can have users run any version if they choose. Just keep in mind that reports built with a higher version of Report Builder cannot be opened in older versions.
