Convert RS2005 rdl to RS2000

Hi,

Is there any tool that can convert a report definition language file written for RS2005 to be compatible with RS2000?

Any help will be appreciated.

Thank you.

Peter

Microsoft does not provide a RDL-downgrade tool. Not sure if anyone else has built one and made it available to the public. Anyway, it would not be difficult to build a tool yourself, or just follow the manual steps described in this thread: http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=414302&SiteID=1

The manual steps cover almost 100% of RDLs (I omitted custom report item and custom properties).
