Using Report Builder - SQL Server Tutorial
From the course: SQL Server 2008 Essential Training
Using Report Builder
The point of this web site is to allow us to view and interact with reports. But to do that, we need to make some first. There is a couple of ways to do it, but the one I'm going to pick is this icon here on the bar called Report Builder. You might first think this is a little web site or web application, but it actually isn't. In fact, the first time you click it, you may have to click OK once or twice, because it's going to install an application on your Desktop. This is SQL Server Report Builder, and we're in the 3.0 version of this application with SQL Server 2008 R2. This is an Office style application that you'll use to design your reports, to build your reports, and then they'll be pushed back, saved up to that web site, the Report Manager web site, so that other people can use them and view them. So when it opens up it does have a Getting Started panel that offers to step you through several different wizards. But I'm just going to dismiss that and kind of go back to basics…
