ProMRDS Samples in ZIP Format

This version was built with Microsoft RDS 2008 R2 using Visual Studio 2008 Professional Edition with Service Pack 1 applied. However, it should also work with the Express Edition of Visual Studio C# (except for the Compact Framework projects). If you have Visual Studio 2005 you will need to upgrade to VS2008. Once solutions have been migrated to VS2008 you cannot (easily) return to VS2005.

RDS 2008

RDS 2008 is available in three Editions: Express, Academic and Standard. Academic and Standard have the same functionality, so two packages were provided for RDS 2008 (NOT THE R2 VERSION):

Please be sure to select the correct version. These are DssDeploy packages and they will not install unless you have the matching Edition of RDS 2008 installed.
