Microsoft Rdlc Report Designer in Visual Studio 2017

I am Microsoft Rdlc Report Designer extension and NuGet ReportViewerControl.Winform package.

Now it is possible to open *.rdlc file in Visual Studio 2017 designer, but when i try to save my report i am getting error: "Unknown Report Version: 9.0

Also, i can't create empty *.rdlc file because don't have the same template in New File... dialog

enter image description here

UPD:

At this moment, i have no idea how to fix that, but i know hwo to avoid it:

Open your old report in VS2015 and then save it - next time VS2017 can open/edit/save files.

I have found that opening SSRS 2005 layouts from the Solution Explorer causes this error. If I close Visual Studio, open File Explorer, find the .RDLC and double-click on it top open VS 2017 without the project loaded, I can convert and save the file. Once it’s converted and saved, I can work with it normally inside VS.

Answer from marketplace:

This happens when you have missed a reference. Please search through all of your code and project files to find the 9.0 references and update to 14.0.

By Sql Reporting Services 25.04.2017

It means that you need to search for patterns (previous xml structure) of 9.0 version in your *.rdlc file, which was not obvious for me.

That is why resave in VS2015 worked.
