Or you can use Reporting Services Scripter to extract the report definition
(RDL) quickly and easily

Hi,
Is there anyone who can put me some light on, how to view and edit the
reports created by others. Because all the code will be on thier
machine only. So how to open the present report in designer. Thanks in
advance.
Krishna.

In report manager you go to the properties of the report. Click on the edit
link of Report Definition. Save it locally somewhere (like in c:\temp). Then
in report designer right click on reports, add existing item, go to
c:\temp\nameofreport. When you add it to your project it will copy the rdl
to wherever the rdl for the project is being saved.
