RDL File Not Saved

I am using Visual Studio .NET 2003 (with Reporting Services installed), and a
cluster of SQL Server 2000 in a Citrix environment.

I created a Business Inteligence Project, a Shared data source, added a new
report and created a new dataset. I added tables to my Data tab, setup the
relationships, etc.

I Save All and exit VS (without building or deploying the solution). Next
time I come back my Report Data file does not contain the tables I previously
added on. No matter how many tables I add the size of the .rdl file seems to
be 1 kB.

This hapens occasionally only. I could not find a relationship yet but there
are occasions when the rdl file does save properly and thus I don't loose all
my work.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks
Sorin

Try to switch to Layout view before saving your project.

I've switched to Layout, saved the project and closed VS. Then I re-open the
project; the tables were still not there.

In the Data tab I always click in the top section until I see the "*" after
the file name and then right-click the tab to save it.
