Calling other tasks from script task

  • Am doing dts to ssis conversion .... in dts i used to scall another task from inside the activex script .

    '**********************************************************************

    ' Visual Basic ActiveX Script

    '************************************************************************

    Function Main()

    SET PackObj = DTSGlobalVariables.Parent

    SET ChildObj = PackObj.Steps("DTSStep_DTSActiveScriptTask_1")

    ChildObj.Executionstatus =DTSStepExecStat_Waiting

    Main = DTSTaskExecResult_Success

    End Function

    how do i do the same in SSIS

  • You can't.

    Use precedence constraints to control the flow of the package.

  • precedence control i cant use to fulfill my logic ... wat my dts does is say i have three files with same file name but the date part of file name varies (file name is say excel_finance_23042008.xls, excel_finance_23052008.xls etc) . DTS takes the first file and runs the package .... when i reach end of package i need to take the second file ..... and run the same package again .... problem is i cnt implement the logic using for each loop also .... i need to call in script only

  • Do you think SSIS can't or you can't?

    If you use a loop, use substring in the constraint expression to extract the portion of the string you want.

    You can now execute a specific task on conditions.

    Precedence constraints are slightly more powerful than the red and green arrows. Double click one.
