Express reporting services

I'd like to graduate from using access as my back-end db to using sql express however i'm concerned that I won't be able to create reports with express. Is this true? And if it is, is there some third party tool (preferable free) that will allow me to create a reports....Or can I link access to the sql server tables just for reports?

Thanks,.

Hi,

SQL Reporting Services will be added to the Express product later this year when we release Service Pack 1. You can use Reporting Services in Express to create reports against your SQL Express databases.

You can also create linked tables to your SQL database in Access and use the reporting functionality built into Access to create your reports.

Can we create reports using SQL SERVER EXPRESS, if we install crystal reports 10 (or later editions) separately ?
