Reporting Services 2000, VS2005 and SQL Server 2000

I am running MS SQL 2000 and VS .Net 2005.  

 

Is it possible to run Microsoft Reporting Services 2000 with VS2005 or am I
required to upgrade the SQL server and reporting services to 2005 just to
produce a few WEB reports ?   This would be too costly both in money and time.

 

I have just finished developing a solution using the version of Crystal Reports
which is built into VS 2005.  However I now believe that I require costly
licenses to deploy the solution on the live WEB server.  Can anyone confirm this
assumption (in simple terms).  

 

There really does to be a lack of a descent, reasonable cost, solution for
generating WEB reports against an MS SQL 2000 database whilst using the VS 2005
development environment.  Maybe I am wrong ?

 

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

 

Cheers

Please help ...

In simple terms,  I have VS2005 and am limited to MSSQL 2000 and want to
generate some WEB reports.  Can I use Reporting Services 2000 services to do
this ? 

Upgrading to SQL 2005 is NOT an option and I have a large WEB project built
using VS2005 (VB). 

This now all seems to be so difficult. Any help would be appreciated.

Cheers

George
