Answer 1

When you insert the media to make an installation you should mark BIDS (Business Inteligence Developer Studio) to be installed.

You could read this: http://technet.microsoft.com/es-es/library/ms174597(v=sql.105).aspx

Of course, change the webpage's language before so you can understand the article

Answer 2

You need to have three different versions of SQL Server to get it. It is an add on to SQL Server. Either:

SQL Server Enterprise Edition

SQL Server Developer Edition

SQL Server with Advanced Services (SSIS, SSAS, SSRS)

The third option is free and is here I believe: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=29062

Ensure you select the larger sized one. During install ensure you select 'Business Intelligence Development Studio' or 'SQL Server Data Tools' (I know they renamed it under the 'All Programs' Menu for God knows what reason except to be further confusing to an already confusing product. Just select all check boxes if you can to be sure you get it during an install.

To ensure you have it, it is basically an add on to Visual Studio 2010 called 'SQL Server Data Tools' under All Programs but once you are in Visual Studio it is still called 'Business Intelligence Development Studio'. You can get to it from All Programs > Microsoft SQL Server 2012 > SQL Server Data Tools.

You need to ensure you also have a working SSRS Server to host reports too so ensure you can get to 'All Programs > Microsoft SQL Server 2012 > Configuration Tools > Reporting Services Configuration Manager' as well if you are going to learn SSRS you might as well learn the advantages of publishing the reports as well where the real power of SSRS comes in.
