Does anybody know how to retrieve the list of objects to be transfered (through theAddObjectForTransfer method) within a DTSTransferObjectsTask step? The GetObjectForTransfer method requires you know the object name, owner, and type - this is the part I don't know and want to find out.
Anybody?
Thanks,
Trevor

Good luck,

Thanks Darrell, but I've already been though that one. One would think that if MS included and add method, there must be another collection available.

ok, here it is: Its not perfect, but it works.

This is part of my code, so let me explain. The important stuff is highlighted. You have to get a hold of your Task object from the particular package object that contains the TransferObjectTasks. One bad part that I can't figure out is how many objects there are in the collection to transfer, so it loops until an index out of range exception. Don't see any accessible collection to get a count anywhere.

I've tried this and it works. To filter, take a look at the DTS.DTSSQLObjectType constant list by going here: http://www.free2space.com/docs/prog/Microsoft_SQL_Server_Books_Online/6_dtsr17_12.htm

Hope it helps, I'd be intrested to hear if this works for you.

foreach

(DTS.Task T in package.Tasks)

{

Task =

new DTSTask();

Task.Name = T.Name;

Task.TaskType = T.CustomTaskID;

if(Task.TaskType=="DTSTransferObjectsTask")

{

string ObjectName;

string OwnerName;

DTS.DTSSQLObjectType _type;

try

{

for(int i=0;i<100;i++)

{

((DTS.TransferObjectsTask2)T.CustomTask).GetObjectForTransfer(i,out ObjectName,out OwnerName,out _type);

Console.WriteLine(ObjectName + " - " + OwnerName + " - " + _type.ToString());

}

catch(System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException ioex)

{

Console.WriteLine("No more objects");

}

Task.Description = T.Description;

It took a lot of effort to rewrite my app from VB.Net to C# so I could use the example Paul supplied above, but it worked like a charm!

Thanks Paul!
