Hi as Rikalous has said you need to install Business Intelligence Development Studio. This can be found under the Client tools in your SQL Server 2008 installation wizard. You can optionally go to Programs and Features and click on Add/Change when you have selected SQL Server 2008 and then click on the Add option.

You should then be asked for the SQL 2008 installation media and you will have the option to install BIDS (Business Intelligence Development Studio) under the Client Tools section in your installation.

What you need is Business Intelligence Developer Studio - this is a cut-down version of VS2008.

You get this by installing the reporting services client tools, which will either install a version of VS2008 (if it's not already installed), or, in your case, it will add the appropriate project types to your existing VS2008 install.
