Lesson 1: Create the RDL Schema Visual Studio Project

For this tutorial, you will create a simple console application. This tutorial assumes you are developing in Microsoft Visual Studio 2005.

Note

When accessing the Report Server Web service running on SQL Server Express with Advanced Services, you must append "$SQLExpress" to the "ReportServer" path. For example: http://myserver/reportserver$sqlexpress/reportservice2005.asmx"

To create a console application

On the File menu, point to New, and then click Project to open the New Project dialog box.
Expand either the Visual Basic Projects or the Visual C# Projects folder.
Click the Console Application icon.
In the Name box, enter a name for your project. Type the name SampleRDLSchema.
In the Location box, type the path where you want to save your project, or click Browse to navigate to the folder.
Click OK. A collapsed view of your project appears in Solution Explorer.
Next, you will need to add a Web reference to the ReportService2005 endpoint. From the Project menu click Add Web Reference, and either type the URL path to your report server or navigate to it with the options in the browse window.
Select the ReportService2005 endpoint, type ReportService2005 as the Web Reference Name, and then click the Add Reference button.

For more information about how to connect to the Report Server Web service, see Tutorial: Accessing the Report Server Web Service Using Visual Basic or Visual C#.
In Solution Explorer, expand the project node. You will see a code file with the default name of Program.cs (Module1.vb for Visual Basic) has been added to your project.

Open the Program.cs (Module1.vb for Visual Basic) file and replace the code with the following:

The following code provides the method stubs we will use to implement the Load, Update and Save functionality.

In the next lesson, you will use the XML Schema Definition Tool (Xsd.exe) to generate classes from the RDL schema and include them in your project. See Lesson 2: Generate Classes from the RDL Schema using the xsd Tool.
