SQL Server Forum / Services / Reporting Services / November 2005Limiting access to Report Designer Only
Hi, Has anyone tried to limit access to Report Designer only? We have report developers that can't have access to Integration Services, Analysis Services, Report Models, etc. What files or directories can we remove to limit their access? Thanks for your help! You do not need to run reporting services to design report with VS.NET. That is, you can cut all your report developers' access to your reporting services, they still can design report on their own computer, as long as report designer is installed along with VS.NET and they have data source to test it (of coourse they cannot test deployment). > Hi, > [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > > Thanks for your help! Thanks for the reply. We've installed vs.net 2005 but don't see report designer. How do you install it? Is there a snap-in or plug-in for Report Designer?

It seems that VS 2005 does not ship with report designer. Can it be downloaded seperately? > You do not need to run reporting services to design report with VS.NET.

It no longer requires having VS. It comes with it's own VS that gets installed if you don't have it.

Hi Bruce, We have installed the client tools from RS 2005 using the sql server 2005 release C2 disk. The problem is we need to be able to limit access to only use Report Designer for certain developers. We don't want certain developers to be able to use certain features such as SSIS, Analysis Services, Report model designer, etc. Make sense? Is there a separate install for RS 2005 client tools?

Also you can manage rights to the database which would determine what they can do. Not sure about Report model designer. I don't know much about that.
