What are RptProj, rdl and rds files?

[Santhosh A Nagendra]

Hello,
We have project files in .Net with the extensions as
xxx.rptproj , xxx.rptproj.user, xxx.sln , yyy.rdl, yyy.rdl.data and zzz.rds
files

I would like to know what are these files and what type of project it is. I
tried to open in VS.Net and Visual studio but did not open. Do i need to
install some utilities etc..? please give me information about these
projects and its usage.

Thanks,
santhosh.

Dear santhosh,
You have a Microsoft Report Project its a new
Feature of VS 2005. You do have support of reporting Services in SQL
2000 and VS 2003. RptProj is the project file. Rdl (Report defination
language) is the report. and RDs is the data source for the report. for
further details you can visit
