I want to use Visual Studio 2017 SSDT to create a SSIS package. However, I can't see any SSIS template in SSDT 2017, as it exists in previous versions of Visual Studio such as VS 2015. Could someone give me some hints on how to do that? Thanks, A
It's a 2-step process. You need to ensure that you enabled Data storage and processing from your Visual Studio installation AND you need to download and install the SSDT standalone installer.
This page details the instructions: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/ssdt/download-sql-server-data-tools-ssdt?view=sql-server-2017
SSDT standalone installer is here: https://download.microsoft.com/download/D/F/8/DF8B51B9-8E9F-47F3-A27B-33EEDADD8966/SSDT-Setup-ENU.exe

I have a client who has Visual Studio Tools for Applications 2015, 2017 and 2019 installed. They are in the process of moving to a new server and need to identify what version the SSIS packages (that are deployed to the SQL Server) are using. How do I get that information?
Thanks.
I am working on an SSIS package in Visual Studio 2017 SSDT. I had an update come through for Microsoft SQL Server Data Tools for Visual Studio 2017 (SSDT) Version 15.9.18 and it updated successfully. I went to open one of my SSIS packages and when I opened the Script Task and clicked EDIT to the C# code I now get an error: using Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime; is no longer available. What do I now use in its place so that I can continue working? Any help/direction would be appreciated. Thanks.
I am trying to convert some older VS2005 projects over to VS2015 Enterprise. When I open any with a report project (.rptproj), VS says the project is unsupported.
Unsupported
This version of Visual Studio is unable to open the following projects. The project types may not be installed or this version of Visual Studio may not support them.
Every search I've done, the solution is to install SSDT (apparently formerly known as SSDT-BI)
I havs SSDT installed already.. when I download/install from here (https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/mt186501.aspx), it gives me repair/uninstall options. I've tried repair even though I did not suspect it was broken. There are no updates available under Tools > Extensions and Updates... in VS.
Where do I go from here? Every solution I've found says the same thing, but I already have SSDT.
Any info appreciated.
Support for BI projects for Visual Studio 2015 is available here: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-gb/mt186501
There are two versions of SSDT available for Visual Studio 2015. Only the "Preview" version (available here: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/mt429383.aspx) contains the BI project types.
SQL Server Data Tools in Visual Studio 2015 (a.k.a. SSDT)
Open Visual Studio 2015 and choose the Tools > Extensions and Updates menu. SQL Server tooling updates will appear in the Updates list.
Visual Studio 2015 comes with SSDT which is why you kept getting repair screens - note "SQL Server Data Tools Preview in Visual Studio 2015" is the older version
Now that Visual Studio 2012 is released, where can I download the accompanying 2012 Report Viewer Runtime so I can install it on my server? Is there a redistributable installer included with Visual Studio 2012?
Specifically, I'm looking for the updated 2012 version of this: Microsoft Report Viewer 2010 Redistributable Package
I believe I've found a temporary workaround for this:
In your project's references, select the Microsoft.ReportViewer.WebForms assembly.
Add a reference to C:\Windows\assembly\GAC_MSIL\Microsoft.ReportViewer.Common\11.0.0.0__89845dcd8080cc91\Microsoft.ReportViewer.Common.dll
In the properties window, set "Copy Local" to True for both assemblies.
Deploy your project to the server.
I haven't tested this extensively, but so far it appears that simply copying the assembly to your project's bin directory satisfies the runtime requirements on the server.
the final version of the installation program is http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=35747
I'm trying to learn to create .net stored procedures, triggers, etc. using SQL Server 2008 Developer. I'm guessing my edition of Visual Studio 2008 Shell was installed with SS. At any rate, when I open visual studio and try to create a new project, all that is available is Business Intelligence Project and Other Project types. Other project types only lists Visual Studio Solutions.
Question: Is Visual Studio 2008 Shell appropriate for this or do I need a full-blown version? If I need the real thing, will VS 2010 Express work and if so, do I need to uninstall VS 2008 Shell first?
I have been searching for days for a solution to this. Any ideas any one?
There are a few gremlins regarding the order in which these various components (and versions of) are installed.
If you didn't previously have Visual Studio installed, the BI Dev Studio installation will install a VS shell called Visual Studio Premier Partner Edition.
From this MSDN thread:
You should make sure that Visual Studio is still installed. If you
didn't previously have VS installed, the BI Dev Studio installation
will install a VS shell called Visual Studio Premier Partner Edition.
Look in Add or Remove Programs for an entry like this. If you don't
find any entry for Visual Studio go to the location for SQL Server
setup and run .\Tools\Setup\vs_setup.exe. This will install the VS
Shell. After this is installed repair the BI Studio installation by
running the following from the command line from the .\Tools
directory: start /wait setup.exe /qb
REINSTALL=SQL_WarehouseDevWorkbench REINSTALLMODE=OMUS
Personally, I'd first try uninstalling the BIDS Shell version, and then installing Express (following above instructions if the extra project types don't appear).
