DTS in Sql Server 2008

December 18th, 2009

If you manage lots of SQL Servers no doubt you will have some DTS Packages to work with…. my new install of Sql Server 2008 did not come with the features necessary to work with legacy DTS. (nord did 2005, I understand its depreciated, but this is annoying.)

Don’t be fooled by the install… the Compatibility Tools aren’t enough to get up and running. I found these instructions by Microsoft, which require MANUAL copying of DLLS and such.

But although I was able to get DTS to work in 2005, the same is not true for me in 2008… It’s time for me to fire up a new VM, hopefully you will have better luck.
