When I launch VS Ultimate 2012, and select "New Project...", I do not have the option of Templates --> Reporting Services --> Report Server Project*
When I download SQL Server Data Tools for 2012, I can get to the Feature Selection screen, but everything is grayed out. Hitting "Next" presents the error message, "To continue, select a feature to install. If all features are already selected, these features are installed. You cannot add additional features."

I think the ReportBuilder can run as a standalone tool, however, Reporting Projects in SSDT require some parts of the SQL Server : Reporting Services installation.
See this link under Report Server Projects --> When you install Reporting Services, the following project templates are made available in SQL Server Data Tools (SSDT):

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.
Doing some work on a proof of concept in Azure VM with SQL Server 2012, BizTalk 2013 and Visual Studio 2012. All 3 (SQL, BizTalk and Visual Studio) are on the same VM. In visual studio 2012, I cannot see any project templates for BizTalk.
I installed the Windows Azure BizTalk Services preview but unfortunately, that only installs two templates both for BizTalk Azure services (not orchestrations, etc.).
I tried running (as admin) devenv.exe /InstallVSTemplates to no avail.
All I'm trying to do is have the BizTalk project templates installed in VS2012 so I can create an orchestration.
Ideas? Suggestions?
As part of the Biztalk installation, there's an option to install the developer tools and SDK. If it's not installed initially, you can go into control panel, modify the installation and add it there.
If the dev tools and SDK are grayed out, it's because IIS ASPNET 4.5 and WCF HTTP ACTIVATION 4.5 prerequisites have not been met. Ironically enough, once you meet said requirements, they'll appear during installation (as seen in the image below). In order enable the SDK option, I've found that installing Excel, in addition to several IIS options will enable the installation option. Credit to this blog entry for pointing me in the right direction.
TL;DR Install Visual Studio 2012 FIRST to get ASPNET 4.5 and WCF HTTP requirements met before installing BizTalk. Not sure why they couldn't just say something during the BizTalk installation. Maybe have a "Development environment" mode or type of installation where they'd mention having VS installed first.
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:

I faced a similar issue but in my case its due to version difference.Refer attached image. so once upgrade with right version then prob solved to me. enter image description here
I have a c# application that publishes to a server using click-once, so our company clients can run it. I upgrade my visual studio from 2010 to 2012. every thing is great so far and clients can run the application normally after my publishes.
then I add a report viewer Item to my application and it runs on my pc well. but after publishing the clients face this error:
unable to install or run the application. the application requires that assembly microsoft.reportviewer.ProcessingObjectModel version 11.0.0.0 to be installed in your GAC.
what should I do now, I search a lot but cant find a solution.
thanks.
You will need to add the report viewer as a prerequisite. Here is a link to MSDN that describes what is needed.
