Trial version of SSRS?

  • Hi guys,

    I really want some hands-on experience using SSRS but I cannot find a 180 day download for it. Is there a developers version available??

    Thanks,

    Adam

  • Have yourself a grand old time!

  • If you want to use it to practice Express is not good enough because you will not be exposed to the subsystem specific issues, so make sure you have IIS installed and use the link below to download the 180 days trial version registration required.  The reporting services is just one subsystem make sure you choose it.  Hope this helps.

  • Ahh right I see what happened now. I am running Windows XP Pro so I'm assuming when the SQL Server install runs and IIS is not configured it skips the SSRS install?

    IIS doesn't appear in my list of windows components to install.

    How do you guys have it set up for home use? Are you running Windows Server

  • Go to add remove program and click on add Windows component and add Administrative tool it includes IIS install it then rerun setup and choose repair and now SSRS will be an available option to choose.  Hey I also found out by accident.  Hope this helps.
