Reporting template Component (RDLC) not exists to as New Item in Visual Studio 2017 Enterprise.

How to resolve this?

I have tried by installing SQL Server Data Tools.

Previously it works for me in Visual Studio 2015.

There is a bug in the extension Microsoft Rdlc Report Designer for Visual Studio that the ReportViewer shows up as a non-visual component.

Instead use the NuGet Package Microsoft.ReportingServices.ReportViewerControl.WinForms for each project that will use the ReportViewer. Part of the solution involves removing the ReportViewer from the toolbox after use and restarting Visual Studio before opening the next project/solution.

Please see this answer to a similar question for step by step details.

The RDLC editor for VS2017 is only available as a VSIX installer from the marketplace: Download

  • This link seems to return 404 not found (accessed 06/20/2018). – iokevins Jun 20 '18 at 22:49
  • the link worked for me, but the installer terminated with a log message that it is only for community edition (!?) and "VSIXInstaller.NoApplicableSKUsException: This extension is not installable on any currently installed products". I have VS Enterprise 2017 from MSDN volume licensing. – Cee McSharpface Aug 15 '18 at 12:42

I have just used VS2015 to add the new item. All other stuff seems to be fine in VS2017 (bearing in mind that you installed the VSIX extension)
