Business Intelligence Development Studio for Visual Studio 03?

The goal is to get Report Writer to work but need to create the model first.
Here is my environmental info - we have SQL 2000 installed with RS 2000. I
wish to keep SQL2000. I have sucessfully set RS2005 next to RS 2000 and can
swtich between them fine. We have Visual studio 2003 and do not know if it is
possible to get "Business Intelligence Development Studio" set up on VS03 or
if we are forced to install Visual Studio 2005 as well? If so, can Visual
Studio 03 and 05 both be installed without issue?Business Intelligence Studio will install a version of VS 2005 if you do not
have it installed. Unless you are creating your own extensions or custom
assemblies then you do not need to purchase or install VS 2005. Just install
the BI Studio. It will function fine side by side with VS 2003 (I am doing
that today).

Business Intelligence Development Studio? Also, any guidance as to the menu
pick just to get Business Intelligence Development Studio loaded once I get
the DVD mounted? Sometimes getting just a single componets it not to easy
to do, is it obvious? ;) Thanks Bruce!

exact menu option.
