Missing Microsoft RDLC Report Designer in Visual Studio
In VS 2017, i have checked SQL Server Data Tools during the installation and it doesn't help. So I have downloaded and installed Microsoft.RdlcDesigner.vsix
Now it works.
UPDATE
Another way is to use Extensions and Updates.
Go to Tools > Extensions and Updates choose Online then search for Microsoft Rdlc Report Designer for Visual studio and click Download. It need to close VS to start installation. After installation you will be able to use rdlc designer.
Hope this helps!
Visual Studio 2017 and newer
The RDLC Report Designer can be found on the Visual Studio Marketplace:
- for Visual Studio 2022
- for Visual Studio 2017 - 2019
Besides that, the ReportViewer Control, which is the runtime requirement for showing reports in ASP.NET or Windows Forms Applications, is now available through NuGet. See here for details.
Visual Studio 2015
The Report Designer is part of the Microsoft SQL Server Data Tools.
You can add it using the Visual Studio setup (Programs and Features > Visual Studio 2015 > Change)
