sql server dts:
I am trying to figure out how to run a simple dos batch file after a step
within a DTS package completes...

For example:
A DTS Package uses a FTP TASK to transfer a file.
If successful then
Execute a batch file on c: called cleanup.bat

Add an "Execute Process" task to your package and specify the batch file in
the Win32 Process box

I've never actually used it, and completely amazed that I even remembered
that it exists. Normally I would said use xp_cmdshell to run the .bat....

Have fun,
