Am I missing something or does the sample code require anything other than
VS 2003 and RS? I wonder about xxx.RDL.XML, which is not recognized to be a
valid report file by ReportDesigner.
Sorry if I'm too stupid to catch the things.

Analysis Services Install - Add. componets not found.

I'm trying to install Analysis Services, and we have a full enterprise msdn
set,
but when I go to add additional components I can't fine Analysis Services on
the April 2004 cd available. It doesn't appear to be listed.
Anyone have an idea of what's up with that?
KenMHi Ken,
Can you check "Analysis Services" item in the same screen as "add
Additional Components" of the same sqlserver installation cd?
Thanks,
Dutta

Nope. That's the problem. I come to the screen that has two boxes in it
showing components and sub-components and no matter where I click I can not
find "Analysis Services" anywhere.
I have an academic version of the msdn enterprise and am installing it to
get MS Project Services on a Win2003 server.
Just can't seem to find it.
Any help will be appreciated.

starts. The same one that says "Install SQL"
It is not in the "Add additional components" screen with
some other Checkboxed items.
