I have spent about half an hour looking for an answer to this, so apologies if I have missed it.
Can you get Business Intelligence Development Studio together with SQL Server 2005 both in Express editions? There was mention of an Express toolkit which includes BIDS but it seemed to imply you couldn't combine it with SQL Server Express.
If not, what is the cheapest way for an individual to get Business Intelligence Development Studio? My evaluation edition is about to run out.
hello, I am working with an instance of SQL Server express. I have to create some reports and understand that I can use BI Developer studio to do this. I went through all of the installs, but BI Developer studio doesn't seem to have installed. I rerun the install program (From the sql express toolkit download on the MS web site). When I choose the option to install the BI Dev Studio, it says that it cannot install b/c it has already been installed on the server.
Has anyone seen anything like this before? I really need to get this up and running to continue with the project.
I'm on Windows XP and recently downloaded Sql Server Express Advanced edition from http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express/sql/download/
I also downloaded the Toolkit but it won't install--says the services are already installed. However, I can't find the Business Intelligence link and don't see any Reporting buttons or menu items in Sql Server Express. I'm trying to learn T-SQL and Reporting Services but am frustrated. I've uninstalled, rebooted and reinstalled and still nothing. I'm even listening to the MS videos on SQL Server Express--Reporting Services but what they tell to download and install is what I've done--but no luck. Help!!!
I am trying to create a report using BI Development Studio.In Pivot Table, I can change the presentation of the data area to align with row or column, just like this:http://img164.imageshack.us/img164/2055/untitledsi4.pngHowever, I can't seem to do that in BI Development Studio while designing the report. Does any of you know how to change the presentation of the data area of a report?This is how it looks like now, the data area is sticking to the COLUMN, but I need them to stick with ROW so that I can handle more columns....http://img103.imageshack.us/img103/4066/untitlednc8.png
I downloaded and installed Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition with Advanced Services and Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition Toolkit. Installs completed successfully, and I can launch the SS Management Studio, but when I launch SS Business Intelligence Development Studio, I get message saying "Windows is searching for devenv.exe". When I search for this file I don't find it on my hard drive.
I thought I'd reinstall the SS Express Edition Toolkit, but I can't find this application in the Control Panel Installed Programs list, so I can't uninstall it.
Any ideas as to how I can get SS Business Intelligence Studio working?
Does anyone have a successful prescribed sequence for installing VS2005 and Business Intelligence Reports Projects on a Vista Business workstation to be used to create reports for a server?
I've looked through everything I can find here and I don't seem to see a clear solution without a lot of trial and error.
Fact is, I've not been successful getting just the reports to install on a plain XP box. Of course, the report creation looks fine on the server but I don't want to work directly on the server.
I had to do a re-install of SQL 2005 Standand Edition. I now do not have the BI, I do not know if it came with it or not. What would I need to install ifit did? I also wanted to ask: I know that MS Office Excel has the capabilites to sames as an XML file, but it is not very readable to import into the SQLdatabase. Is there a way to import the XML file into the database via one of the express editions? Thank youDee
The Business Intelligence isn't showing up in the menu with ( Visual Basic, Visual C##, etc). A teckie installed the pro version and said she installed everything, can some one point me in the right direction. We purchase the media and installed from that.
Start with a Vista Ultimate laptop running in x64. VS 2005 loaded second in x64 mode and sql 2005 developer loaded with everything in x64 mode.
I see the x64 service running in the sql server configuration manager but I don't see business intelligence project under sql server in the start menu or as a type in VS 2005.
I am inquiring whether I can have some business Intelligence on Relational DBMS in SQL 2005 as projecting the number of patients within a health care basing on the available data.
I have recently started working in a SQL 2005 (Enterprise Edition) clustered environment. I neeed to start using the Business Intelligence Development Studio but it is not installed.
I have tried re-running the setup but there is no component option for BIDS. At which point during installation does it get installed or what do I need to run to install it?
And if I do run setup again will it affect other installed components?
MSSQL 2005 Enterprise Edition version 9.00.3042.00 Windows 64 bit OS
I have started working on SQL server 2005 and realised that BIDS has not been installed, I tried to re-run setup again for integration services but I get an error saying that the version that is being installed is older than that already installed. I assuming that SP 2 has been installed (judging by the logs) Does anyone know how to install the BIDS application from the above scenario?
i have just installed the SQL Server 2005 eval version to try the Business Intelligence. However, when i click on the Business Intelligence Studio link it starts looking for a file devenv.exe and reports that the file is not found. I have searched for the file and it does not exisits. I have made sure that I selected ALL the components at the time of installation. So although the link to Business Intelligence appears, it is not there. My question is that do i need to install Visual Studio to make this work? I already had Visual Studio 6 - VSS only on the machine.
In what install kit or kits (I have a full MSDN license) do I find the BI Development Studio? I need SSIS.
I downloaded and tried the Developer version but something must have gone wrong during the install because not only did I not get the BI Development Studio, I don't even see the Mgmt Studio.
I've installed SQL Express with advanced services and the BIDS software from the SQL Toolkit using the vs_setup.msi extracted from the toolkit installer (Why not include it in the advanced services?).
Now I'm trying to start BIDS and am asked to log into the Report Server. I use my username and password for ASPNET. The login fails saying that the web application is not available on the web server and to look in the application event log for more information.
There are a bunch of errors listed (and more every 30 seconds are so). The error message is:
aspnet_wp.exe could not be launched because the username and/or password supplied in the processModel section of the config file are invalid.
Also, when I start Visual Web Developer Express I get a message that says there is a Package Load Failure for the Report Designer.
Hi Guys I am developing some charts using 'Business Intelligence' in Sql server 2005. I need to include an additional 'page' filed in the chart the same way we do it in pivot table graphs in excel where there is a page field right on top which has a dropdown of options and you can select those options one by one to see the selected results...
I installed SQL Server Express Advanced Edition and Toolkit. According to the documentation, I should be able to create reports using Business Intelligence Development Studio, but I can't find it. There is only a Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 menu instead. I'm just wondering if there is something wrong with my installation, or is BIDS inside Microsoft Visual Studio 2005?
For using sql server reporting service. I have downloaded SQLEXPR_ADV.EXE and SQLEXPR_TOOLKIT.EXE. I installed both.
But what happen when I am going to Start > Program Files > Sql Server 2005 > Sql Server Business Intelligence development studio. For creating Report project. Then a Missing Shortcut message box is showing where the message is "Windows is searching for devenv.exe. To locate the file yourself, click browse". i.e. shortcut has been created at the time of installation but the required files are not being copied.
I again I open visual studio and from there I select report project but an error message is showing.
I tried again and again but the same result I got.
I am very confused and unable to understand what to do and how to fix it.
MSSQL 2005 Enterprise Edition version 9.00.3042.00 Windows 64 bit OS

Hello,I am learning SQLServer 2005 Express Edition. I wanted to learn ReportDesigner which - according to my tutorial book - is part of BusinessIntelligence Development Studio. I can't find it in Internet. Couldyou help me plase?Thank you very much!/RAM/
I installed all the software that comes with sql server 2005 express including: sqlexpr.exe, sqlexpr_adv.exe, sqlexpr_toolkit.exe. All the installations were successful. However, Sql Server Business Intelligence Development Studio could not be found from start menu. I am not sure whether it got installed. I need it to develop reports. What could the problem be? Any solutions?
I have a database with thousands of records that contain personal details of customers. Some of these records pertain to the same customer - however, they have been submitted by different people, so they differ slightly in detail.
I've been looking to see if any of the data mining tools provided by Business Intelligence Studio in SQL Server 2005 will enable me to achieve a high degree of accuracy in matching records that pertain to the same customer. From what I can see, these tools seem more suited to making general predictions based on large groupings rather than the kind of precise prediction I am looking for.
So I'd appreciate it if anyone could tell me if there is any way I could use Business Intelligence Studio to match these 'duplicate' records together, or whether I will have to create a more SQL-based solution which attempts to match the customer records using SELECT statements and making assumptions about the data.
I have some instalation problem.I am using winxp.i am installing sql server 2005 first in d: drive and automatically create the in c drive Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 Premier Partner Edition - ENU and after that i am instaling the Visual studio 2005 team suit, Now i wants to instal this in d drive because of space.when i trying to instal in d drive it shows to uninstal the Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 Premier Partner Edition - ENU in c drive and then instal or instal in c drive itself not allow instalation in d drive.

I just got through uninsalling the express verions of SQL2005,VB,C#&VWEB and .NET in preparation of a clean install of SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition.
I installed the developer edition of SQL Server 2005 and let it install it's own verions of .NET BI, etc. Now I see that in the install instructions for VB & C# Express requires that all verions of SQL server and .NET need to be uninstalled.
"Before installing, you must uninstall any previous Beta, CTP or Tech Preview versions of SQL Server 2005, Visual Studio 2005, and the .NET Framework 2.0."
So, does that mean I can't use any express editions of Visual Studio 2005 components with the Developer version of SQL Server Business Intelligence Development Studio (AKA - Visual Studio 2005 Version 8.0.50727.42 RTM.050727-4200)?
I had installed SQL Server 2005 Standard on my machine . but due to some reasons it seems Business Intelligence Devlopment Studio got corrupt. when ever I try to create any type of project it throw a error message-
"The Operation Could not be completed , No such interface supported "
Hi Guys I create some reports by connecting the SQL database using Business Intelligence. I do these reports each fortnight so I want to automate these tasks using a macro. How do I create or record a macro in BI??
I will need to have input parameters in it as well
When I click 'Tools' menu, I cant see any 'macro' submenu in it.
Can anyone tell me how to split the hardware for alll the components above. I mean which components can/should be kept together and what other should be residing on other widows servers so that the performance is imporved.
As of now i was thinking of having Database and SSIS on one server box and the SSRS and WSS on another box.
