Anyone know of any good reference books on DTS and DTS
Scripting? I've looked at the Microsoft Press book and
it seemed kinda weak, and BOL is good, but seems to
assume I'd already know what to do (which I will, at some
point), but I'm, dare I say it, a newbie in the realm of
DTS scripting.

There are four DTS books I know of and they all offer slighting
different perspectives. I don't really have a favourite, but you could
try reading some of the reviews on Amazon, but always take a pinch of
salt first-

The Guru's Guide to SQL Server Architecture and Internals actually has
some very good Dts stuff in as well. Some interesting and new ideas in
there for a change, but probably not a pure beginner, although it does
span quite well.
