help with sql server reporting services?

[jrenae]

Hello,

I'm just starting to use sql server reporting services. I'm using the BI project in Visual Studio, and it doesn't seem very user friendly (can't change they layout of exisitng reports).

Also, I'm trying to do a matrix layout so I can have a calculated column (very simple, colA + colB - colC = myCalculatedColumn), where cols A,B and C come from my query. It's confusing on which section in the matrix layout I put each field (page, column, row, detail).

Anyone have a good reference for using reporting services. My reports should be fairly simple.

Thanks in advance for any advice.
