New old question about ownership

  • A user created several dts jobs for us.  Now he is in a new, fully trusted domain.  If I try to delete his old user id from SQL security, the system threatens to reassign his jobs to the sa account.  Hpw can I assign the jobs to his new userid so I can safely remove his old one.  We use SQl 2000 and windows authentication.

    Thanks for any assistance

  • Have him open them and save as .dts files. (structured storage). Then open them back up with the new user.

     

    OR reassign to sa and do the same thing.

  • Use the sp_reassign_dtspackageowner stored procedure in msdb to change ownership to his new login.

  • Not being a wiz at running stored procedures and figuring out the correct parameters, I used Steve's idea.  It reassignes the owner to the current user's account.  Seems to do the job nicely.
