We could learn a lot from crayons. Some are sharp, some are pretty and some are dull. Some have weird names and all are different colours but they all live in the same box.

Yes - you set a deployment location for each project which should be along the lines of:
TargetServerURL: TargetFolder: Reports_Home
You then 'deploy' the report and it appears in the RS interface

don't know to be honest - as long as you have an MDE (Microsoft Development Environmnet) I think you can do it...
When you start a new project, there should be an option there for a new Reporting Services project

Do you have reporting services fully installed ??
What do you have under File>New>Project??

Not 100% sure about installation as our IT bods sorted that out for me but I think you do need to install something to do with Reporting Services - may just be an add-in for Visual Studio....

no worries - hope it works out. RS is a pretty cool little tool - lots of good stuff (but there are also some things it doesn't do so well)
Have fun playing with it !
