title: Use MS SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services with Visual Studio 2010
body: <p>While writing this question I had a simple idea which fixed the issue. Maybe other people have the same problem or you would like to comment this so I'm posting it anyways.</p>
  
  <p>tldr/simplified question:
  How do i use MS SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services in Visual Studio 2010?</p>
  
  <p>Solution:
  Just copy the Visual Studio 2008 Reporting DLLs in your project and include them as references. I guess you have to own a licence for vss2008 when doing this but technically this solves the issue.</p>
  
  <p>Original question:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>How can i use MS SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services in Visual Studio
    2010? The reason i ask this is the following: We migrated to
    VSS 2010 as our IDE but are still using MS SQL Server 2005.</p>
    
    <p>Now, i want to change a piece of code in a Project which makes use of
    Reporting Services on said SQL Server. </p>
    
    <p>After converting the Solution to a VSS2010 Solution I get BuildErrors
    because it can't find the namespaces "ReportViewer" and "Reporting".
    That's because the references to</p>
    
    <ul>
    <li>Microsoft.ReportViewer.Common (9.0.0.0)</li>
    <li>Micrsofot.ReportViewer.WinForms (9.0.0.0)</li>
    </ul>
    
    <p>Are no longer resolvable. So i have to replace them with the
    references to the same Assemblies in Version 10.0.0.0.</p>
    
    <p>After doing that the Solution builds successfully, but when opening
    the ReportViewer i get an SoapVersionMismatchException telling me that
    for Remote-Processing i have to use Microsoft SQL Server 2008
    Reporting Services or higher.</p>
