For SQL Reporting Services 2000 the custom dll could be deployed to c:/programfiles/MSSQLServer/80/tools/reportDesigner.
But now I am trying to achieve the same with 2005. Can some one let me know where I can deploy the custom dll for SSRS 2005 to use it with reports.
Thanks in advance.
When you deploy your custom dll in SSRS 2000 it must be copied to [MSSQLServerInstallDir]\MSSQL\Reporting Services\ReportServer\Bin folder.
The folder you mentioned is only for design-time support under VS.NET 2003 and not for deployment.
In SSRS 2005 your dll must be copied to [MSSQLServerInstallDir]\MSSQL.2\Reporting Services\ReportServer\Bin (Warning: the path may vary depending on you've installed the Report Server)
For SSRS 2005 design-time support the folder is located at [VS2005InstallDir]\Common7\IDE\PrivateAssemblies\
