automating SSMS reports

Is there a way to automate some of the reports available in Sql Server Mgmt
Studio? I really like several of them, such as the Schema Changes History,
and think they would be helpful from a "compliance" perspective. So, I've
been exporting a few to PDF or Excel on a regular basis... so it's pretty
obvious that the next step would be to have a job that does automatically on
a scheduled basis (Daily, Weekly, whatever).
Any insight on if this doable w/out too many hoops?

Hello M,
You can download the reports here

You will need to put them in RS and schedule them

do not.
No other way?

|||RS is needed if you want the same cool look you currently have in Management
Studio. If you're just after the data, you can pull the queries into a
sproc, tweak it to output to a persistent table and schedule a job to run it
at whatever frequency you need.

Auto List Members

In SSMS I have "Auto List Members" and "Parameter Information" turned on for the text editor/all lanuguages but it does not work in the text editor when connected to a SQL Server 2000 DB. Any suggestion would be appreciates.SSMS does not support intellisense for the SQL Editor/TSQL. (as of this time) :)
