In Sql Server 2008 Reporting Services, the Report Designer had changed a lot. Here's a screenshot of the new Report Designer: 
You can drag global expressions from Built-in Fields onto the design surface directly. Use the Insert ribbon to add report items to the design surface.
Editing parameters, data sources, and datasets is made very easy in the Data pane. Just right-click the object and click Edit.
You can still drag and drop fields from the Data pane onto a data region. Each textbox also includes smart tags that you can use to select a field quickly.
Expression placeholders are intended to show you as much information as possible. Parameters indicated by @ symbol and built-in fields indicated by & symbol. Dataset fields use no symbol. A complex expression is shown as <<Expr>>.
As you can see the Report Designer now has a ribbon at the top and zoom capability (right bottom), just like in Microsoft Office. And like I explained in the previous Blog post, you can minimize this ribbon by double-clicking on it.
Any updates for this in 2010? Did they do yet another complete change around to the interface?
