Different version of ReportViewer component in one application

In my company, I have an application that should run on two different sites with a different database configuration. On one site we have Sql Server 2008 R2, on another server Sql Server 2005; we cannot upgrade Sql Server 2005 until next year. The application has no problems accessing various databases, but I have a problem with some reports hosted by the report server.

With Sql Server 2005, I have to use ReportViewer DLL version version 8.0, while with Sql Server 2008 I have to use 10.0.

In any case, in order to manage both versions of the component in the same Visual Sutdio Solution / Project and choose the runtime, which version should be downloaded? If this is not possible, do you have any alternatives? (Obviously, two projects are not an option)

Thanks a lot!

I found out that you can use Microsoft.ReportViewer.WinForms Version 9.0.0.0, which supports both SSRS 2005 and SSRS 2008

You can dynamically load an assembly

Dynamic assembly loading at runtime

base it on something in the configuration file that it selects.

I think you can also put something in a configuration file that determines at runtime which assembly to use, but I never used, and I don't know what to do there.
