Where can I go for Reporting services Help?

[nickmollberg]

I have some questions about SQL reporting services, anyone have suggestions on forums/newsgroups which might be helpful?

Is there such a thing as a datetimepicker I could use inside reporting services? I built the report in visual studio, but there are no datetime pickers in the tollset.

I have been hoping for an RS forum here but no such luck
Here is the link to the MS forum. I have gotten a lot of good info from there.

There is no date picker. Maybe SP2 but I believe they are promising in RS 2005

If you are going to be doing a lot with Reporting Services, I suggest you buy the book "Hitchhikers Guide to SQL Server 2000 Reporting Services", by Blackburn and Vaughn. Chances are this will answer most questions you have, as it is a very comprehensive book with lots of excellent examples and advanced techniques. Anything that is not in this book, you can post to the discussion forum for the book, and have questions answered by the authors.

There is a public section on the forum, and a premium one for those who have purchased the book.

Cursors are useful if you don't know sql.
DTS can be used in a similar way.
