Hi David,David & Grant It turns out that VS 2010 Report Viewer does not support local reports created with Report Builder 3
However I have started using Report Viewer 2 - and my application is able to open reports edit with this. So after the version mishaps, I am still quite happy.

You need to build an extraction layer of views for the users to access.

I have been designing .rdlc reports using Visual Studio 10 What would the client need to buy or download to be able to create or modify such reports ? Is there a cheaper option than VS 10?
