Hi,
Can someone tell me how to search a task name that executes a batch in a DTS package. I have the batch name with me.
This is for Production issue. any help that fixes this is much appreciated.
Regards,
Hari.

I'm not sure what you mean by a batch, but if you want to for a particular task, open Disconnected Edit in the package by selecting it from the Package menu or right-clicking in the white space of the Designer pane and selecting it. Disconnected Edit shows details of connections, tasks, steps, and global variables in the package.

I am not sure exactly what you mean either. The word "batch" is mentioned, so I am wondering if perhaps you want to decode the encrypted DTSRun.exe command set in a Job step?

Since your question is unclear I am going to offer a solution that may or may not answer it..
Here is the code for an activeX script that will extract out all DTS jobs from a server and write them out with their properties, it is useful when you are looking for something in particular but don't know where it is..
'**********************************************************************
' Author:Darren Gordon
' Purpose: To script all of your DTS packages out to text files.
'This is useful if you want to search all packages to find
'a specific string. All text from execute SQL tasks and
'activex scripts is included in the output files.
'
' Notes:Set your servername and output folder at the top of
'the script. Also set integrated security on or off.
'************************************************************************
Function Main()

Set oPackageSQLServer = oApplication.GetPackageSQLServer(sServername, sLogin, sPassword, 0)
end if
Set oPackageInfos = oPackageSQLServer.EnumPackageInfos("", True, "")

'Note: It is IMPORTANT that oPackage be instantiated and destroyed within the loop. Otherwise,

'this loop is run. That is NOT what you want.

Create a DTS package, add an ActiveX script taskm and add the contents here.. Replace with your servername, and local file system path. Execute.
Enjoy..
