sql server reporting services: Question 1: May this hotfix help me out
Question 2: Where to get this System.dll 2.0.50727.224

When I start VS2005, open an existing Reporting Project and this opens with
one Report Form in Forms Designer Layout, the following message appears
sometimes:

Microsoft Visual Studio:
Object reference not set to an instance of an object

This only happens, when I've left VS the last time with a Report open (so
that this time VS displays it automatically).
This never happens while NOT working with Reports in VS.

It seems that the following KB helps with a Hotfix.
