Hi Folks

I've downloaded & installed Visual Web developer Express and SQL Server Express and now I'm trying to install the Reporting Add-In available here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express/downloads/default.aspx

It downloads just fine and, just as the installation progress bar is almost done and the status text says 'Registering Product', I get the following error message:

"There is a problem with this windows installer package. A program run as part of the setup did not finish as expected. Contact your support personell or package vendor"

Running VWD shows the ReportViewer control now appears in the 'data' group. I can add it to a form, but I cannot create a new report, as clicking on 'Design a new report' under the ReportView Tasks popup menu does nothing.

Any ideas, please

Thanks

Andrew

The web version of the reportviewer control running in local mode without reporting services is very limited. You could uninstall the Express standard and install the Express Advanced which comes with free reporting services you can use to develop reports with the reportviewer control. Try the links below for Express Advanced and reportviewer code samples.
