Answer 1

you might have to use the Reporting Services Web Service to perform such operations.

have a look at – Accessing the Reporting Services Web Service Using

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa237438%28SQL.80%29.aspx

Edit Add a web reference to SSRS web services e.g. http://yourserver/reportservice/ReportService2005.asmx

your code will be something like

ReportingService2005.ReportingService2005 service = new ReportingService2005.ReportingService2005();

    service.CreateReport("your report","parent folder",true,<rdl byte array>,<rdl properties byte array>)

Edit 2 To add web reference through Visual Studio

1) Right click on your project

2) select "add web reference" option

3) enter the webservice url

for SSRS 2008 the webservice url is the same as mentioned above
