Compatibility vs2005/sql2005 and sql2000

Hi,
Are there any known compatibility issues with VS/SQL 2005 and SQL Server 2000?
In other words, can I (continue to) develop a report project for SQL server
2000 when I have VS/SQL2005 installed on my pc?
--
Thanks,
EdgarI have both VS 2003 and VS 2005. I have modified and deployed reports from
VS 2003 to RS 2000.
What you cannot do is create or modify a report in VS 2005 and deploy to RS
2000. RS 2005 reports require RS 2005.
But, you can upgrade RS 2000 to RS 2005 leaving SQL Server at 2000 (still
need a SQL Server 1005 license).

this purpose. RS 2000 RDLs can be directly published from the old report
designer to RS 2005 report servers. Note: the RS 2000 report designer will
not support any of the new RS 2005 features (such as Interactive Sort,
etc.).

- Can I use VS 2005 with RS2000 to deploy reports to SQL 2000 Report Server?
- Can I use VS 2005 with RS2005 to deploy reports to SQL 2000 Report Server?

Comparison SQL Server and Active Directory

Hi all,
we develop some asp.net 2.0 workflows which need to access several data from
our Active Directory (e.g. Telephone number, city etc.). We wonder whether
there is a recommendation how to do it best: Shall we access the data from
Active Directory directly or is it better to have a daily job which puts all
the necessary data into a SQL 2000 database and we access the SQL database
then? Especially I'm interested about the effect on the performance of both
our workflows and also our network environment or else. Are there any
official comparisons / recommendations or what are your personal opinions
about it?
Many thanks!Hi

This will depend on several factors such as your AD design, network, number
of enquiries, how much latency you can have for changes. I don't know of any
comparison regarding speed or effect, but if there was, there would be the
caveat that it was on their setup and may not be reproducable on other
environments; therefore you could only really ascertain the impact by trying
it yourself and doing some controlled load testing.
If there was a significant number of enquiries then I would recommend using
SQL Server to store a copy of the information especially if you can afford a
higher latency for updated information.
John|||Hi John,
okay, many thanks. Actually I don't have exact details of our Active
Directory Setup, I hope our network admins did a good job :-) So we will try
with Active Directoy and see about the performance.|||Hi

There are plenty of resources regarding extracting data from from AD and
also using ADSI for a linked server, so if it doesn't work it would be quite
easy to get the information e.g. http://www.rlmueller.net/freecode3.htm
