Step 1 - Select Download. By selecting Download, you will bring up a folder navigator. Select the folder to which to download the report. Clicking OK will create a folder with the name of the report. Inside that folder, three files will be created:  a solution file (extension sln), a project fil (extention rptproj), and a layout file (extension RDL). These are used by the Report Designer.
