Deploy to Server or Open from Server doesn't work

Sometimes when a report is deployed after changes, the changes do not show up
on the Reporting Server, however the changes do show up in VS. Changing the
report and deploying again have no affect on the displayed report.
Also, sometimes a report will display one way on the server, but be a
completely different version in VS, what can be done to stop this behavior?After you deploy you show shut down IE and open up a new instance of IE.
One of the things you are seeing is a caching issue.
As far as it looking different, I haven't seen that. What I have seen is
bugs present in VS that are not there in the production environment. So if I
have something weird occur with the preview I always deploy and see if the
problem still shows itself.

Interesting thing is that when I export to PDF, the report looks fine,
exactly what I'm seeing in visual studio, however from inside report manager,
not good.
Problem is alignment in the Page header of the report name and Date Time.

will cause the text boxes to wrap and not follow the alignment that set up in
VS. This is apparently only true for viewing the report in Report Manager,
as it will look fine when exported.

have always had the opposite problem.
