Running SSRS report against Azure SQL

We're converting our SSRS reports to run against Azure SQL DB. They were previously run against on-prem SQL DB. We ran into an issue where we simply cannot run the reports from Visual Studio. We're getting an very generic error (An error occurred during local report processing). When I simply run a query in a Dataset query window, it returns the data with no issues. It's when I preview the report in visual studio, I get this error. Is anything extra needed to configure this Azure SQL DB?
Thanks.
Congratulations Tony has solved the problem by himself:
"I solved it by using shared datasource instead of a local one."
I help him post it as answer, this can be beneficial to other community members.

How can I create daily Pentaho reports automatically?

I want to create a report with Pentaho everyday without doing it manually. The report should integrate data from a SQL database. How I´m supposed to do that?
When you've created the report, upload it to the server and then on the server select the report and create a schedule with the desired parameters.

Unable to save report that includes a datasource of Microsoft SQL Azure type

I have install SSRS in azure using the following instructions (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn449661.aspx) and all seems to work fine, however when I create a report in report builder 2014 (in this case empty) that includes a Microsoft SQL Azure datasource type I am unable to save the report and get the following error message (even though when I test connection it succeeds).
"The report definition was saved, but one or more errors occurred while setting the report properties"
Reports with standard sql datasources work fine.
I have also tried creating the report using Visual Studio 2013 and get a similar error message.
I have tried this using SQL 2012 and SQL 2014 and get the same error.
Turns out I was running SQL Web edition, you require at least standard to save different types of datasources.

How To Create Query In RDLC Report Using VB 2010

I want to create a report with .rdlc, in this case i want to join some table and put the result in table on the rdlc file. I got confused, coz there is no place to put my query in the report.

I suggest downloading SAP Crystal Reports (http://www.crystalreports.com/). If you are using SQL Server, use Business Intelligence to create the report through the server. The report viewer currently installed with Visual Studio is not user friendly.

Crystal Reports

I have installed Crystal Reports and am using it in Visual Studio 2005.
Can anyone help me as to how i can use SQL Server 2000 to generate reports using Stored Procedures.
Im not sure i have understood the question. if you want SPs to write the RPT file for you then I cant answer.
What i have done for years is use Stored Procedures to do the heavy-lifting for the report. Simply create an sp with parameters. When you create your crystal report and adding data definitions in make sure that stored procedures are included. Then add parameters to the report which are inserted into the SP paramaters at runtime.
Using Views is also a good way to put all the data massaging work back onto the db server instead of the client. Send parameters from crystal to return a filtered dataset back to your report for printing.
Crystal Reports: Tutorials and Sample Code

Google search of "Crystal Reports Visual Studio Tutorial" returned that as the top result.
Start by creating a data source type of OLE DB, and choose your SQL Server Native Client. This option will be there for a new report, or if you set the data source; note that if you set a different data source for an existing report, your existing data fields may disappear from the report. Using integrated security is nice because you can control access to the data in the report in SQL Server.
Then in your database expert, click "Add Command", where you can call the shared procedure, add SQL, select your fields, etc.
