I am slowly working my way through the tutorials for 'Reporting Services' in SQL 2005. I am on Tutorial: 'Creating a Data-Driven Subscription' and currently in Lesson 2 which is 'Modifying the Report Data Source Properties'. It says, and I quote

1. Click Start, point to Programs, point to Microsoft SQL Server 2005, and click Management Studio. Connect to a report server.

2. Navigate to the folder containing the Adventure Works sample reports.

3. Expand the Employee Sales Summary sample report, and then expand Data Sources.

When I open up Management Studio I select Reporting Services but there is no folder containing Adventure Works and then the subsequent Employee Sales Report.

I have installed the sample database as part of the setup and I have deployed it as per the setup guide in both MSI format and also script. The deployment was 100% without error.

I do not know what to do now as I am desperate to continue working through these so I can for once get a proper handle on what is going on but until I can find what it is talking about then I am stuck.

Anybody? Please!!!

The AdventureWorks sample reports are not installed by default, you have to do it yourself, read how to do it here: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms160721.aspx.

You should also download all the reporting services MSDN webcasts here:
http://www.microsoft.com/events/series/sqlserverbi.mspx ...they're a good introduction.

Excellent, thank you very much for the answer and also the webcast link.

Much appreciated
