sql server dts:
Hi,

New to SSIS... I have created many dts packages in sql server 2000, but am
having a tough time understanding SSIS...

I know I need to do some learning... what is the best resource book ?

I know people are going to tell me to use dot net code as opposed to
vbscript when I ask my questions below, well, in the near future I will, but
for now...

I have several dts packages that are simply vbscripts that I want to execute
as jobs from SQL server 2005

1. I was able to create a package be dropping an Active X script Task onto
the Control Flow tab of a new integration package. I added the script code
to this task. I noticed that MS does not even support the mouse button
options to copy and past code into the script box (yet another hint to get
with the dot net program).

2. Every time I close the ActiveX Script Task editor, it runs the task. How
can I stop this ?

3. I saved the project as Integration Project 1, how can I schedule it ? I
cannot seem to "see" it from SQL server 2005.

Thanks !

Hello Rob,

Welcome to SSIS. SSIS is a very different beast to DTS and some of the thought
processes need to be rethought also. Why do you need to use Active Script
tasks?

I am confused a little by you saying that when you close the design time
window the task gets run. How do you know that? What is in the task? This
should not and as far as I know should not be happening.

If you save to SQL Server then have a look at this article
