Re-installing RS 2000 report designer

I am somewhat of an RS newbie -- many months ago I installed RS (using sql
v2K, VS 2005) and created a handful of projects - nothing crazy, but they
worked. Recently I needed to get in there and either edit an existing or
create a new one, but I am unable to do so. In VS, start page, if I hit my
project, it fails w/this error:
The application for projetc 'D:\Projects\....\Project Name.rptproj' is not
installed.
Make sure the application for the project type (.rptproj) is installed.
I have tried everything - I even removed and reinstalled VS. Still get the
same error, nothing works.
In VS, New Project, Business Intelligence Projects is no longer available.
Also, all reports are available/visible via Report Manager. I just can't
get into VS to access/edit them, or to create new ones.
I've done a little surfing, have seen indication that I may need to
re-install the report designer. Is that correct, and if so, how do I do that?
Any advice at all really is appreciated.
