For this walkthrough, you will create a simple console application that accesses the Report Server Web service. This walkthrough assumes you are developing in Visual Studio.

To create a console application

  1. On the File menu, point to New, and then click Project to open the New Project dialog box.

  2. In the left pane, under Installed Templates, click either Visual Basic or the Visual C# node, and select a category of project types from the expanded list.

  3. Choose the Console Application project type.

  4. In the Name box, enter a name for your project. Type the name GetPropertiesSample.

  5. In the Location box, enter the path where you want to save your project, or click Browse to navigate to the folder.

  6. Click OK. A collapsed view of your project appears in Solution Explorer.

    In Solution Explorer, expand the project node. A file with the default name of Program.cs (Module1.vb for Microsoft Visual Basic) has been added to your project.
