SQL RS 2005 Migration -- sql server reporting services

Hello:

I have a report successfully running on SQL RS 2000. This report uses a
custom assembly developed using VS 2003 to evaluate a report expression. The
assembly has references to Microsoft.ReportingServices.Processing.dll in SQL
RS 2000. Now I am trying to migrate this report to SQL RS 2005.
Unfortunately, I get an "invalid reference error for this dll", when I try
to publish the report. I looked into the RS 2005 folder and I do not see any
dll by name 'Microsoft.ReportingServices.Processing.dll'. Instead I see a
new dll called 'Microsoft.ReportingServices.Processing.Core.dll' and I
believe Microsoft has renamed the dll. So I tried rebuilding my assembly to
refer to this new dll using VS 2003 & I am not able to add a reference to
this dll. I get an error saying references could be added only for dll and
COM components. Could anybody please explain to me as to what I am doing
in-correctly here?

TIA
-VC

Hi,
I too was having the same problem.

in 2005 i believe the logic is moved to
Microsoft.ReportingServices.ProcessingObjectModel.dll
you have to port your code VS.2005 to add the refrernce to your project. it
works.

but i hve to mainitain 2 set of code or project for the Application.. one in
2003 VS.NET and another one in 2005 VS.NET. is that the right solution? If i
have any change i have to compile in both in 2003 and 2005 for the app to
work in 2000 and 2005 reporting service..
why this problem..
did u faced this same problem.. how do resolive it..any comment is
aprreciated.

Thanks
