I have downloaded the latest version of the Reports module. In trying to install the extra visualizers, I read that there is supposed to be an "ExtVisualizers" directory with an "install.txt" file containing instructions. The Report module that I downloaded has no such directory or file in it. Is there anywhere else where I can find instructions on installing the extra modules?

In version 5.0, the Visualizers are now located in DesktopModules/Reports/Install and can be installed by selecting "Manage Add-Ins" from the module actions menu of a Reports Module.

Hope that helps! If you still have questions, feel free to post them.

Ah, the "Manage Add-Ins" menu item can be found the Reports Module itself, not the Module Definitions page. So, go to a page where you have placed a Reports Module and make sure you are logged in as an Administrator. Then in the top-left corner of the module there should be a downward arrow (UNLESS you have installed a different skin, in which case it may be in a different place, you'll have to ask your Skin Vendor where the Action Menu is). Hover your mouse over this arrow and you should see the "Manage Add-Ins" menu item.

Hope that helps! If you still have questions about the module feel free to ask them here (no matter how simple they seem ).

I'm either "Not getting it" or my installation has a serious problem.  I have installed the reports 5.0.0 module without errors and am able to place the module on a page and even define a report and query my database.  However, when I "hover" over the arrow in the Top-Left corner of the reports module on my page, I DO NOT see a menu option of "Manage Add-Ins".  The menu that I see offers the following options:  Import Content, Export Content, Print, Settings, Delete, Move.  What am I doing wrong/where should I be looking to "Manage Add-Ins" and with luck install the Report Services visualizer?
