Saving a Web Report to Visual Studio

First let me start by Saying I am very new to 2005 Reporting Services.
I deployed a report server project created in Visual Studio to another
server. The drive that original file was on crashed, and the backup
turned out to be useless.
Is there a way I can take the deployed XML / rdl report, and save it to
a new location. Thus allowing me to save my backside and continue work
on the report from Visual Studio Report Designer.
Signed,
Hoping for a Christmas MiracleGo to report manager, click on the report, click on the properties tab.
Click on Edit lin under Report Definition. Save locally on your hard drive.
In your project you add an existing item and select the rdl from wherever
you saved it. It will be copied over into your project with the rest of the
rdl files you have.
Not real discoverable.
The RDL is not stored on the server as a file. This procedure allows you to
get the rdl from the RS database.
