SQL Server Reporting Services 2012 Projects with Visual Studio 2012 - Learning SQL Server Reporting Services 2012 - page 93

The Report Viewer Controls you find in VS2012 (version 11.0.0.0) are similar to
the ones available in VS2010 (version 10.0.0.0), and these controls are not upgraded.
Instead of Visual Studio 2012, you can also use VS2010, which you may download
from http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=12187 .

In the following sections, the worked examples will show how these are used
in creating reports. Local or remote is a property of the Report Viewer, or rather
how and where the report is processed. You should familiarize yourself with the
properties of this control, which is easily accomplished by a right-click on on the
Report Viewer Control (they are found under the section MISC in the properties
window in Visual Studio 2012 and as an independent node in the properties
window in Visual Studio 2010).
