Report Viewer not available in VB Express?

I'm trying to use report viewer controls, but the controls do not appear in the toolbox. The file reportviewer.exe was not in the location specified in the help files, but I have downloaded it, and when I try to add it to the toolbox, I get the message 'ReportViewer.exe' is not a .Net module. Should there be a .dll somewhere? Is it not possible to use this control w/ VB Express / SQLExpress?

ReportViewer.exe contains the dlls for the controls. You need to run it to extract the dlls, and install them in the GAC. See http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms251723(VS.80).aspx

The syntax should be: http://servername/ReportServer$finance
Also, this link should be helpful.
