Create DTS Packages in Management Studio???

  • Hello,

    I do know we can not create DTS packages in Management Studio. I do have a reference for that in Pro SQL Server 2005 Page 511.

    I am currently taking a free SQL Server 2005 course from Microsoft Learning website: "Course 2937: Administering and Monitoring Microsoft® SQL Server™ 2005 " which claims in overview of Object Explorer in Management Studio that I can use Object Explorer to perform a number of tasks including "Create Data Transformation Services (DTS) packages."

    I would like the confirmation that I am correct that we can not create DTS packages in Object Explorer (Management Studio 2005) before I submit it to the eLearning support.

  • If you install the dts components in the feature pack then you can maintain existing DTS packages in management studio but you cannot create new ones.

  • Thanks David. I was of the same opinion. Even if it was a typo and the course materials mean SSIS not DTS you can not create an SSIS package in Object explorer too (except for Maintenance Plans), we create packages in Visual Studio.
