Can Reporting Services 2008 be used with SQL Server 2005 as the catalog database?

Question

Can you set up a Reporting Services 2008 reports server to use SQL Server 2005 for the report catalog database?

Answer 1

Yes you can. Quote:

You can use an instance of the Database Engine from SQL Server 2005 or SQL Server 2008 to host the databases.

In the olden days, you could not host SSRS 2005 databases onto SQL Server 2000.
