Hi :
Recently I made a project using Visual Studio, and I save this like
myproject.rdl, but when I open
this file I only see xml data like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Report xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sqlserver/reporting/
2005/01/reportdefinition" xmlns:rd="http://schemas.microsoft.com/
SQLServer/reporting/reportdesigner">
<DataSources>
<DataSource Name="DataSource1">
<rd:DataSourceID>ee4ca7c7-05e1-4cec-9c53-ce704a269319</
rd:DataSourceID>
<ConnectionProperties>
<DataProvider>SQL</DataProvider>

How could I revert this data to my project ?
Thanks

RDL is report definition file for SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS). You need to have SSRS installed to run and see
the report.

In business Intelligence Development Studio (BIDS) , open the solution
file *.sln, not the individual rdl file.
If you want to add it to an existing solution / new solution: in
solution explorer, under reports, choose add existing item , and
browse to the rdl file (youll need to choose a data source also)
