So, is Report Builder 3 replaced BIDS or will there eventually be a BIDS 2010 release? Dave.Anonymous

Hello Dave, Report Builder 3.0 does not replace BIDS. Report Builder 3.0 may be sufficient for many of your scenarios, but BIDS offers additional functionality, such as report project support. You can find more information about this here: technet.microsoft.com/.../ms173745.aspx Thanks, Robert
