Hi,
Is there a possible way to create multiple folders in a report project so that different reports can be categorized and arranged in separate folders. Apparently, it seems not. Is there a workaround?
Thanks.
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.
Thank you
I recently installed the Evaluation Edition of SQL Server 2005 x64 and it appears that MS Visual Studio 2005 is installed in stead of SQL Server Business Intelligence Development Studio. When I choose new project the only template available is "Blank Solution". How do I get all the templates (i.e. Analysis Server Project, Integration Services Project, Report Model Project, Report Server Wizard project, etc.)?
Or would it be better to uninstall MS Visual Studio 2005 and attempt to reinstall BIDS?
Hi
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?
Thanks
Mike
Hi
I have the following situation...
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.

Hi,
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.

All,
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.
Any thoughts and help would be appreciated.
Hi folks,
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?
Any comment appreciated.
Hi
recently I heard the term Business Intelligence Development Studio .
Can anybody tell use of this and how to get this.
I need to transfer data from ODBC to SQL Server which is of 10GB size.
Currently I'm using INSERTS for each row of ODBC.
Is there any other way to transfer data except using SQL Bulk copy. Since my boss is asking me to use multiple threads for tranforming data.
Thanks in advance.

Hello,
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.
TIA,
Kweri
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)?
TIA,

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.
Please help guys
I am using SQL Server 2005
Thanks

I'm completely stumped by this one.
Yesterday I installed Microsoft Visio Professional 2003 and Microsoft Project 2003.
Today when I open any of my SSIS packages I get this:
There were errors while the package was being loaded.
The package might be corrupted.
See the Error List for details.
The error list says: Unable to instantiate XML DOM document please verify that the MSXML binaries are properly installed and registered.
When I try to create a new integration services project I get the following modal message box:
Failed to save Package File C:Documents and SettingsMyNameLocalSettingsTemp mp172.tmp with error 0x8002802B - Element Not Found
Yet I can create and run a small C# program no problem, and SQL Server Management Studio seems to be OK.
What do I need to de-install and buy a seperate computer for here? Is it Visio or Project?
Thanks in advance
This is a numpty question if you know the answer, but I'm not sure how to find the information I want!!!
What I would like to know is: What happens when you drag and drop a package within the SSIS Packages section of the solution explorer?
I was trying to reorder the package.dtsx files in the SSIS Packages folder but couldn't find a way to alphabetise them. I tried to drag and drop the file to the right location in the list instead, but it dissapeared from the folder display completely. What happened?
I can't see it's contents copied in the file it was dropped onto, nor did it replace the file. The package itself can still be added from the physical folder structure on the PC but it gets added at the bottom of the list.
I'm just intrigued as to what is going on. It just doesn't seem logical (something that can be said of much of my limited experience of the interface).
Any ideas?
Hello I'm sorry if this post doesn't belong here.
I need to run a number of packages from Business Intelligence Studio but I keep getting a validation error. They work when the creator of the package runs it. I'm the only person that needs to be able to run this package. What must I do? The encryption level is encryptsensitivewithUserKey
I am using SQL Server 2005 Developer edition on Windows 2003 Server with SP1
I am getting the following error when try to execute SQL Server Business Intelligence Development Studio to create/configure Report Model:
"Microsoft Visual Studio
The Beta period is over
Thank you for your participation
You can remove Microsoft Visual Studio from your computer
OK"
Where this is installed from Visual studio installation or SQL server installation?
Because only vss is installed as visual studio 2005 installation in this computer(server)
Please help to sort out this problem

I had SQL Server 2005 Express with all the management features installed on a box running Vista Ultimate. I need to do some SSIS work on the box and installed SQL Server 2005 Developer€™s edition in parallel.
During the installation process it indicated that the development tools was already installed. I uninstalled SQL Management Studio Express and the VS Partner Edition.
When I try to install the Management and Development tools the installer tells me that they are already installed and that there is nothing to install. Now I€™m left without any development or management software.
How can I get SQL Management Studio and Business Intelligence Development Studio installed?
Hi,
Recently we puchased the sql2005, and had it installed on our server.
However, I dont have the SQL Server Business Intelligence Development in my sql2005 intallation. when I read this forum and other websites, about SSIS packages I see that I need this tool. Where can I download it?
Is it possible I have another sql2005 version that don't have this tool?
thanks.
We're trying to upgrade to SQL Server 2005 (from 2000), but we're having consistent problems getting BIDS to install correctly.
The BIDS installation has failed on four of seven machines we've tried installing the SQL Server 2005 tools on. Not very good odds. Note that the rest of the SQL Server tools installed correctly; only BIDS is hosed. Two of the three machines where BIDS installed correctly were fresh Window's XP installs; one, however, wasn't a fresh install, so it's a mild enigma.
On the other four machines we've had the following issues with BIDS:
the shortcut created in the Start menu tries to load 'devenv.exe', but it's missing. BIDS doesn't start.
'devenv.exe' is on the system, however upon starting BIDS we're greeting with a generic pop-up that says, "Cannot find one or more components. Please reinstall the application.". Reinstalling the application does not help.
Thanks for any help or insight.
Eric
To start Business Intelligence Development Studio, We need to go to the Start menu > Programs > Microsoft SQL Server 2005 > Business Intelligence Development Studio.
But when I go thru the procedure mentioned above, it gives me the following message. "Missing ShortCut, Windows is searching for devenv.exe. Please locate if u know the location".
What should I do with this. Please help Asap!!
Hello,
I have installed SQL 2005 dev version. All the installations were successful. However, I can't find Sql Server Business Intelligence Development Studio (BIDS) from the VS 2005 IDE. I can see Integration Services Project, Analysis Services Project, Integration Services Project, etc except BIDS.
I tried to run sqlexpr_toolkit.exe by itself and it tells me BIDS already installed. Any idea?
I am trying to use the Foreach Loop Container. When I open the container for edit on the Collection page, the Foreach Item and Foreach File enumerators are not listed in the drop down.
I have installed SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition. If there something else I need to install?
I appreciate any help provided

Hi,
Does anyone know if the Business Intelligence Development Studio (BIDS) that comes with SQL 2005 has a memory leak or a service pack that might address a memory leak?
When I'm trying to render previews for a report, my CPU is 100% consumed. I have 1 GB Ram and a Pentium 4 3.6 GHz CPU. Is there perhaps a setting within the BIDS environment that I can changes so as not to utilize all of my CPU or to release it after a certain amount of time?
Thanks in advance for advice and/or help about what to do in order to be able to use BIDS.
Kind Regards,
Barbara
Hi,
I first installed Visual Studio Express Edition which also installs SQL Server Express. I then installed Sql Server Management Studio Express. Subsequently I wanted to create reports, so I installed SQL Server Express with Advanced services which installs reporting services. But afte installing all these things I found that I am unable to create reports . To do that I would need Business Intelligence Development Studio . so I downloaded the install file for SQL Express toolkit which also includes installing BIDS. However when I tried to run the SQLEXPR_TOOLKIT.EXE it gives me teh message that all the components have already been installed. I cannot see BIDS anywhere (from start->programs->microsoft sql server 2005 or in control panel). Am i missing something? How do I determine if BIDS is installed or not
Hello,
I would like to get some advice on Visual Studio and Business Intelligence products. I currently work with SQL Server 2005 and I created an export package which I turned into an SSIS package. I would like to be able to change the SSIS package when I need to and I read that I needed Business Intelligence to modify the package. I installed the Business Intelligence software through our SQL Server install disks and still didn't see the Business Intelligence app in my program files. We have another server running SQL 2005 and I can modify SSIS packages there with BI but it has Visual Studio loaded on it. Do I need Visual Studio to use BI?
Thanks,
Smith3rd
I have installed the evaluation version of SQL Server. When i click on the Intelligence Development Studio link it starts looking for the file devenv.exe. The file is not on the pc. Repeated installation twice making sure that all components are selected. What is causing this file not to be available?
Haris
Everytime I went throught the express Toolkit install and I chose, all components, it just responded with "nothing to do."
I installed the BIDS by just executing vs_setup.msi. as mentioned above.
This seems to have worked partially. Visual Studio is now there.
However, no templates are available except "Blank Solution"
The case seems some Report Builder/Model Builder templates should exist?
What am I doing wrong?
What can I do to fix the problem?
Where can I find the "report building templates?"
Thanks.
