I'm a report writer who's been able to edit/update reports in Visual Studio 2008 (we use SSRS2008R2). I've just installed Visual Studio 2012 and when I go to convert my reports project it's not working as I appear to be missing a component.
Essentially - the project converts but in the solution explorer I see the message 'The application is not installed' under my project.

I have Visual Studio 2012 Premium + Expression Blend installed.
