MS SQL Server 2005 Express Edition and Reporting Services question...

Will my reports that I have created with "Microsoft SQL Server
Reporting Services Designers
Version" (This is the free RS designer) work on my new website with
SQL Server 2005 Express?
What I'm saying is, Can my website work with:
SQL Server 2005 Express Edition?
SQL Server "Express" Reporting Services?
Thanks for any help.
TrintNot sure about the version you are talking about. Is it the developers
version? There are very few differences between versions. Most differences
is not the report itself but other things like data driven subscriptions. A
report is the same between versions.
The main issue with SQL Server Express Reporting Services is not the report
you designed but other limitations such as where the data resides. If you
data is in Express Edition then you are fine. If you are wanting to report
off of data on another SQL Server box then you will have problems.

I was just wondering if it is limited to local instead of being able
to work as the paid version across the internet.
Thanks,

If you are trying to do this over the internet then you need custom
authentication which is not express. You need at least workgroup.
