New Reporting Services Features in SQL Server 2008 R2 CTP2

Back to all articles

It turned out that for time being the CTP2 of SQL Server 2008 R2 which I announced yesterday is available for TAP participants only. It will be publicly available on Wednesday. Meanwhile, Robert Bruckner listed the new Reporting Services features which got implemented in CTP2. The biggy is the new map region that lets you visualize geospatial and geometry data.

In my first book I had a sample that demonstrated how to export a report as a data feed. Well, in R2 this will be natively supported. Reports as data feeds, anyone? Visual Studio 2010 Beta 2 will include an AJAX Report Viewer. I would hope for a Silverlight version but one step at a time.

Again, post your KJ-related question to the Reporting Services forum.
