Q: RS on XP

Hello,

I have SQL Server 2000 installed on my Windows XP, can I install Reporting Services to this machine? If yes, where can I get it?

Thanks,

No you can't install SRS Server on an XP machine. You could fiind more info onhttp://www.microsoft.com/sql/reporting/default.mspx

Thank you for the reply. I could not really locate it, can you tell me the exact URL that tells we can not install it to XP. I need to send it to my manager.

Thanks,

The above url won't show you how to install SRS it will just show your manager that you can't install the server componets on an XP box. You can only install the development edition as per the URL above.|||

Is there anyway I can download the developer edition on the internet? I think the trial RS version is Enterprise, I have SQL Server license what should I do to get RS Developer if it is not in the internet?
Thanks for your help.

Unfortuneatly I don't know of any site where you can download developer edition of RS. You should be able to install the development part of Enterprise SRS on your XP machine. However you won't be able to host SRS reports, for this you'll need a server OS.
