Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Reporting Services Report Builder 2.0

SQL Server 2008 includes a brand new version of the Report Builder which was first introduced in SQL Server 2005. The key new features in Report Builder 2.0 are:

  • A completely new user interface that conforms to the Office 2007 look and feel

  • A local client install rather than a click-once application that you download and install from Report manager

  • Supports running reports locally or on the server

  • A Report Model is not required; you can create your own queries using a query designer, import queries from existing reports, or manually type in your queries

  • A Tablix report type which is a combination of the matrix and table reports

Report Builder 2.0 is not included on the SQL Server 2008 media. Instead you can download it from
