OMG, so I have been trying all morning to install the report viewer controls for Visual Studio 2015 Community edition...
Have installed these as well as a bunch of other ones but I can't see it the Choose Toolbox Items box. I also can't find the webforms dll anywhere after the installs.
I installed both of these. I am running windows 10. This is killing me....

Mine appears in the Reporting section of the Toolbox - I didn't have to add it to the Toolbox manually. If it's already there then that would be why it's not appearing in that dialog.

Its not there unfortunately.

This is not a long enough reply apparently so I will add a few more ramblings...

Did you check the MS SQL Server Data Tools during Installation of VS Community Edition?

If not you can also Install them separatly. Take a look here:
SQL Server Data Tools in Visual Studio 2015[^]

Here are more details about
Reporting Services in SQL Server Data Tools (SSDT)[^]
