Importing RDL from Server to VS

One of my staff members created a report and published it to the server. The
original Visual Studio project has been lost. Is there a way to import the
report definition from the server into Visual Studio for editing?
I realize that we could hand edit the RDL. I just want to try and avoid this.David,
I've found myself in the same situation in the past couple days.
Here's what I did (it may not be the best, most efficient way, but it
worked).
In Report Manager, click Edit on the Properties>General tab for the
given report. You should get a File Download window; select Save and
put the rdl in the folder where you want it.
In VS, create a new report project. Open Solution Explorer and right
click Reports. Select Add>Add new item then pick your rdl. You should
then be able to open it in Designer.
