I need to display the field names from dataset bound to each column on the report. Is there an option in SSRS to display the report in design mode when you run the report through report viewer?
Or are there any other suggestions on how to do this?

I just need to know, how can I identify the type of SSRS report from Microsoft Visual Studio Tools for Applications 2012?
For Example: Whether the existing report is table(tablix) or matrix report.
There is no such thing as a tablix or a matrix report in any version of SSRS post 2005. Each report can have charts, tables, matrices, etc all on the one report.
The only way you can know what is contained in the report is to open it and have a look.
In a SSRS report, i have a multi select parameter, when typing through Keyboard the parameter selection is working in Visual Studio, but when i open report from report server, the key board typing and parameter selection is not working in multi select parameter in report.
I might try deleting the report from report server and re-deploying. In 2008 there are sometimes issues with parameters where this seems to be the only solution.
I prepared a report. I have used 15 subreports for the main report. When I deploy my report then all the subreports are also deployed in the Report Manager. I just want to see Main Report in the Report Manager instead of all reports. The snapshots are below. Is there any way advise me?
You'll need to go to the properties of the sub reports and hide them in tile view. You can't actually completely hide them but this will hide them from most users.
We have about 90 Report Builder Reports built by power users. These reports are built off the 20 odd Base reporting tables.
Once in a while we add new fields to these reporting tables.
The challenge here is to automatically refresh the Datasets in Report Builder (SSRS) without having to go through each report to manually refresh data on the data set. Since SSRS processes these reports with FMTONLY ON is there a way to automate this process dynamically.
Thanks
So, I think you should use report models
A report model is made from a datasource view and once the DSV is updated, it reflects on the report model and consequently on all reports.
I dont think there is a way of doing it when the reports automatically connect to the DB
I created a report in Access 2007. How could I view and change the SQL that the report is based on? For example, I am trying to find out how to change the way the report is sorted. I would expect this is based on the original sql query generated when I ran through the report wizard. Is this stored in some property sheet? How can I view it in the actual report "object" code.
There is no point in sorting in the SQL or query on which the report is based. The report uses its own sorting and grouping which you will find on the ribbon (Access 2010) in design view for the report: Group & Sort.
The record source can be found on the property sheet for the report.
From the report's design view, view the report's properties (I right-click on the box in the upper left corner under the window's title bar.)
Then you can modify the report's recordSource property.
You'll also want to look at the way the report is grouped and sorted. I'm pretty sure it's under the View menu, but they've uninstalled 2007 as of yesterday out here, so I'm still finding where stuff is in 2010.
