I want to modify the connection String of a Shared Data Source on a report Server. the reason is, every week we deploy new data on the server, so I am planning to deploy new database, test it and modify the datasource so that it than connect to new database, then remove the old database.

Can anyone help me in the regards.

    ReportingServices2005 is not a dll, it’s a webservice

    The URL is formatted as below for most 2005 instances:

    https://<<Report Server Name>>/ReportServer/ReportService2005.asmx

    If you add the web reference the solution you have should work
