Deploying RDL and RDS to customer without Visual Studio

I was asked to design and deliver SQL Reporting Services reports to a
customer. The customer will not have Visual Studio on their network. I've
read that you can script the deployment of reports and shared datasources
using RS.EXE but have not been able to figure it out with the instructions in
the documentation.
Can anyone provide an example of how I would do this?I posted this message earlier today, but let me try one more time:
Why not use the upload file buttom of the Report Manager
(http://yourreportsite/reports) to do the deployment?
a) Upload the rdl;
b) Create the db connection manually again within the Report Manager.

application where I could select an rdl or rds file and call the web service
to add the selected resource behind the scenes

running the PublishSampleReports.rss script from the command window. Or have
you not reached that far as yet. If you have not then search for "sample
scripts" in Visual Studio.Net help. There is a link "Script for Publishing
Sample Reports". Click on the link and then read the instructions that
follow. If you are still unclear as to what to do, then i will try and help
u further.
Cheers

the Web Service has a CreateDataSource class. Do you know if this is pretty
straightforward?
