  I need to write some new SSRS reports that use SQL SERVER Report 2008 R2 database. On my workstation, I have installed visual studio.net 2010 professional version. I would like to know what I have access to be able to write the SSRS reports.

  From the Visual Studio.net 2010 download site would I need to download VS 2010 Shell (integrated)?

  I am thinking that I need the shell version of Visual Studio 2010 since I created SSRS reports for SQL Server 2008 in the past using a shell version of visual studio.

  you need to install BIDS from the SQL server media which will install VS2008 Shell if you dont already have VS2008 installed.
