Migrating Reports

What is the easiest way to move/migrate reports that I have created on a development server to a production server?
 
I prefer to use the "upload file" method rather than deploying from within visual studio... i put it in a folder that is not visible to general users and then fiddle with the properties like security, database connection, default parameters, etc. Then I move it once these things are fixed. Sometimes i only give the users a linked report.
 
What do you mean "upload"?? So once you are in Visual Studio creating the reports - what do you do then? Just save the file to a directory and move the whole directory?
 
No I guess I assumed you were using the Report Manager web application... you can choose to upload a file through that and then browse to the actual report file on your disk and upload it.... the same way you attach a file with a web-based email client.
