On the Solution Explorer pane, right click your rdlc file, select Open with, then select Report Designer. You can also set it as default in this menu, if you like

Hope that helps

From your Visual Studio 2017 top menu:

• go to Tools menu
• select Extensions and Updates...
• now, from the left panel, choose online
• from the top-right corner, search : rdlc report
• choose Microsoft RDLC Report Designer and click download
• when download completed, close the visual studio to let installation begin

Now, you can re-open Visual Studio again, and double-click your reports to open in designer.

Depending on your Visual Studio Version you need to install some RDLC extension.

回答4:

If your .RDLC is opening as XML in Visual Studio by default, then you would need to install the correct version of RDLC Designer extension for Visual Studio. You can compare which ReportViewer version you are using by looking at the tag where you are including report viewer control on the web page.

For example for Version 14.0.0.0, you can download the correct extension from Visual Studio Marketplace a link provided below which matches with Report Viewer version 14.0.0.0 and Visual Studio 2017
