FYI: SQL Reporting Services download is available!

http://www.microsoft.com/sql/reporting/productinfo/trial.asp
If you have a SQL 2000 license, you can use the software. I don't work for
Microsoft, but I am excited enough to see this that I wanted to send out the
link. I have been waiting a long time to move beyond the limits of
Infomaker or crystal reports to something that is more integrated with SQL.
It has pdf output capabilities btw. I am going to start trying this out
immediately, I suggest DBAs check this out.

*******************************************************************Just wanted to pass this along from my first attempt.
Note from the Readme file, I found you need VB .NET 2003 for the Report
designer.
Before you install the product, check for a file called authz.dll in
c:\winnt\system32. It'll hold up the install for the Reporting Services
server part if it is missing. It is a file that comes either from
contacting MS support for the file in Q320211 or from another Win 2k machine
that was upgraded from a previous service pack to SP 4 instead of SP 4
directly.
You know there always has to be prerequisites <g>
