ReportViewer control failure on web deployment

I've recently added the ReportViewer control to my my web application. Everything works just dandy while running on my development machine, but I receive the following error when the site is published to our development server:

Server Error in '/' Application.

Parser Error

From the research I've already done, I know that the server is missing the following three key dll's because Visual Studio 2005 was not installed:

Microsoft.ReportViewer.Common.dll
Microsoft.ReportViewer.WebForms.dll
Microsoft.ReportViewer.ProcessingObjectModel.dll

Without installing Visual Studio 2005 on this server, which would install these dll's, is there any easy way to get these required dll's installed into the GAC on my development server?

I found the solution. Microsoft offers a redistributable package designed to do exactly what I need. Get it at:

This didn't work for me at first either. I rebooted the server and it all works now! I've searched so long for this answer! Thank you ecbruck!!
