Data processing extensions on SQL Server Express Edition?

I developed nice reports using custom data processing extensions. When I deployed the reports on my report server (I am using the express edition of SQL Server 2005) I was surprised to see that my reports were not rendering successfully.

After searching the web, I found this page listing the supported/unsupported features of SQL Server 2005 Express Edition: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms365166.aspx

On this page it clearly says “The Reporting Services API extensible platform for delivery, data processing, rendering, and security is not supported.”

Is there a way to get my reports to work on the express edition?

If not, which minimal version of SQL Server should a buy to get it to work (workgroup, standard or enterprise)?

Thanks for your help.

You will need Standard or Enterprise edition:
