Missing DTS Data sources

  • In Enterprise Manager in the DTS wizard and also in the DTS package themselves I am missing some of the data sources.  For example Microsoft Access and Microsoft Excel.  I have recently installed SQL 2000 SP4 server on a Windows XP machine SP2.  My MDAC is version 2.8.

    When I run the following.

    USE MASTER

    GO

    xp_enum_oledb_providers

    GO

    I don't have Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0 - Microsoft Jet 4.0 OLE DB Provider

    as an option.  I have tried installing the latest Jet driver but it says XP has it already installed.

    How do I make the data source connections available?  What else can I check?

  • This was removed by the editor as SPAM

  • You might try, if you can, removing and reinstalling the client tools. I'm sure something got mucked up in the install. My XP SP2 worked fine with SP4, but I have seen workstation installs that sometimes get corrupted.

    And let us know if you figure it out, this is a good one.

  • I finally found the solution.

    Need to re-register the following dll's.

    cd /d %windir%\system32

    regsvr32 msjetoledb40.dll

    regsvr32 msjet40.dll
