Location of reports?

I cannot find the original copy of a report that is uploaded onto my Report
Server. Where does Reporting Services store the uploaded reports? I need a
physical location so I may copy the .rdl file and edit it.
Is there any other way to copy the report file from inside Reporting
Services?it is in the directory of the report project if you are using VS.NET.
another alternative for the rdl is to select the report properties and
'Update' it (specifying the location of the .rdl - which is what we do for
production here).
Also, you may upload from RM basically anything (it doesn't have to be an
RDL). Let's say for instance that the folder for a department needs a monthly
.XLS for all to work from...

if in doubt, look in the ReportServer database (if you used the default name
fom the install) and open the Catalog table. the name and path for the report
are located there.

file. You can use Report Manager to retrieve it (properties of report,
edit).
