  I am trying to create a small report in SSRS 2008R2 (my first report with that version) and I keep getting the error "The report preview failed because the report could not be built. Read the errors, warnings, and messages in the Error List window for specific build failures".

  I tried building a simple report using the wizard but I get the same error msg.

  However, I can deploy the reports and they work fine?!

  SSRS 2005 is happy...

  Any idea?

  Thanks

  If I login as myself, I just get the error message when trying to view the report in Preview.

  If I login as the builtin local administrator, Visual Studio crashes when I try to switch a report into Preview mode...

  Any help?
