I am a newbie to SQL and currently learning T-SQL (MS-SQL 2008R2 version). I have been working as a Data Validator for past 2 years and would like my next career path to be a SSRS Report Developer. I feel once I get better at TQL and because I am used to creating reports in both Excel and Access this would be an easier transition for me career wise than the other BI Tools SSIS and SSAS. I have some questions regarding my course of study though and I hope I can get some answers from all of them that I have listed below:A). I will eventually learn the other BI Tools after SSRS but as I feel that a Report Builder/Writer will be an easier transition for me (this is what I hope but any thoughts on this are welcome). Which of the other BI tools should I learn next that will assist me better as a Report Developer SSIS or SSAS?B). I have seen jobs for experienced SQL Developers with a request for knowledge of C# and sometimes XML . This will be later studying for me of course but as either Report Developer, or other BI Analyst how necessary will knowing either of these be ?C) . Is it more crucial to master the T-SQL language or be better at utilizing the tools/services in SSRS when just starting out ?
