Changes to Text Annotations not saved
-
Just wondering if anyone else has come across a weird
problem I found.
When you have Text Annotation in a DTS package and you
make a change to the text, but make no other changes to
the package, the change is not saved.
Also, something you can try to test this out,
1) Create a new package
2) Add a Text Annotation
3) Enter some text
4) Close the package
On my system the package is not saved.
Thanks

I had no issues with SQL 2000 SP2. What version are you running so I am comparing Apples to Apples here?

If you create in the designer and script out to VB code, the annotations are lost.

I am sorry, I see what you are saying now. Close the package without pressing save. And yes I get the same results as you. It doesn't ask about saving changes either. I checked SQL 7 SP4 as well and same issue there. I will check with around on this, may just have been overlooked as I don't make annotations that often and when I do I tend to press save every so often anyway, just in case.

Apparently, this has always been the case so I am sure will get treated as a bug. I tried SQL 2000, SP1 and SP2 all did same, as did SQL 7. Did notice however, if you create a diagram with a text annotation it ask to save changes even if only item. I will pass along and see what is said.
