I have visual studio 2012 and SQL Server 2014 installed in my machine. As a part of my work I require to open and RDL (SSRS) file in design view. When I checked in the google I saw that I need to have SQL Server Report Services in my visual studio and open Report Server Project. But I am not able to create Report Server Project and I doubt that I don't have SQL Server Report Services in my visual studio.
I downloaded and installed Microsoft SQL Server Data Tools - Business Intelligence for Visual Studio 2012 from the location here (if you VS is 2012). Then I created an new report server project Report Server Project and I did "add Existing Item" as my RDL report which need to be opened and go for design view. Then it will open the report in design mode.
I was unable to make datasource connection in Visual Studio 2010 for reports. I've already tried refresh many times but still, the list of server name is empty.
How could I solve this issue?
Reporting Service Configuration Manager in my machine is working fine.
I have installed SQL server express advanced and using Visual Studio 2012.
I have created an integration package in VS 2012 and Windows 7.
I use Script Component as Source in Data Flow with one output column. The column's name contains Umlaut (Column_ΓΌ).
The package works fine in VS 2012 but The package doesn't work in SQL Server 2012 and Windows Server 2012 after deployment.
I get the following error:
Error at Data Flow Task [Script Component [9]]: The component metedata is out of sync with the compiled script. Recompile the script using the Script Component Editor.
Error at Data Flow Task [SSIS.Pipeline]: "Script Component" failed validation and returned validation status "VS_ISBROKEN".
Error at Data Flow Task [SSIS.Pipeline]: One or more component failed validation.
If I open project in VS 2012 and Windows Server 2012 I get the same error but I can recompile the script component using the Script Component Editor in Visual Studio.
If I use column without Umlaut The package work in Windows 7 and Windows Server 2012 without recompiling.
Please help to resolve this issue
Don't know what happened but for some reason MS Visual Studio is no longer letting me to add or edit tables in Sever Explorer. When I right click on the "Tables" the only options I got are; refresh and properties. I tried re-installing MS Visual Studio and SQL Express Server but still having that same problem. Have no idea what else to do. I'm logged in as an Administrator on my computer.

You need to install SQL Server Data Tools. I had the same problem and the option apppeared after I installed SQL Server Data Tools.
In what seems to be a very odd turn, I am trying to create a Sql Database project in Visual Studio 2012, and am getting this nutty error:
And clicking on either link leads to a Page Not Found at Microsoft.com, which is odd in itself.
From the bare text of the error message, which is (for search purposes):
Unable to open Database Project
This version of SQL Server Data Tools is not compatible with the
database runtime components installed on this computer.
Considering that I have Sql Server 2012 Developer Edition installed on the workstation, this seems incredible. I can open or create a database project in VS2008 with Sql Server 2012 DE installed, so why not VS 2012?
I Installed SQL Server 2012 Service pack 1 yesterday and then I started getting the problem you describe in Visual Studio 2012. Not only with database projects; I could not use the SQL Server Object Explorer, not open sql-scripts and lots of other weird database related errors. Always with the same message:
"This version of SQL Server Data Tools is not compatible with ... bla, bla, bla ..."
This solution helped me: https://web.archive.org/web/20150315060703/http://blog.wharton.com.au/2012/11/16/sql-server-2012-sp-1-breaks-sql-server-database-projects/
Hope this can help you too
Update:
With the March 2013 Release it seems you have to also update the SQL Server Data Tools available here See the comments in this post for more details.
Just downloading and installing the SQL Server Data Tools cured this for me;

This happened to me in visual studio 2012 on an existing project after I installed visual studio 2013. Installing the 2012 tools fixed it as others have said but the link provided in previous answers wasn't the one I needed. the link that did it for me is here
Just in case the downloaded SQL Server Data Tools is not working. You can try to download this version:
