OLE DB data access from a variable

  • Is it possible to change the source table, with may contain different columns at runtime with SSIS?

  • Yes and no.

    SSIS is tied heavily to the meta-data. So, if you design your package through the GUI and select a table as a data source, the components in your data flow will include inputs and outputs that have all of the meta-data defined in them. This means a schema change will break your package.

    SSIS is designed to allow you to dynamically build packages through code. MS has a bunch of information and here is an article from this site:
