Hi all
I would like to select transforms in a package and paste them as jpeg or similar into word or powerpoint in order to allow me to create a separate set of documentation.
However, whenever I copy some transformations and jump to word, the copy buffer is empty.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
Is there a way to quickly document all tables and views a DTS package uses? Is there any system table/view which will hold this information?
For one of our projects we need to document these objects so that the client could remove unused objects from the db. There are 20 + DTS packages to go through.
Any help/suggestion would be greatly appreciated.
What is the best way of documenting SSIS packages?I am not interested in purchasing any software, any general template that covers the key information of any SSIS package that should be defined and documented.

How do you document a DTS package? I cannot figure out how to print it, with all its parameters, code etc...
Where is it all stored?
Would be very useful.
Hi Folks,
I am new to this list server and have a dumb question. Does anybody know of any software that will document table/attributes very similiar to sp_help?? Basically, what I am looking for is some fancy documentor for tables very much like the one with access.
Thanks...
Is there any way to print a report with column name, datatype, size, etc in a report under SQL Server 6.5. I am looking for something

Hi folks,
I'm so sure this is a clueless newbie question, I'm embarrassed to be asking it. The short version of my question is, "What's the best path to generating printed documentation of my SQL 2005 database?" The long version follows...
I've just completed the first draft of my new SQL database design (using Management Studio). We were previously storing our data in seven (yes, seven) separate Access databases, now I have everything set up quite nicely in one SQL db, all nice and relational and with proper field sizes and naming conventions, etc. It's all beautiful, but now I need to document it.
Why wasn't it documented first and then built? Let's just say I inherited this task in mid-stream with a looming deadline. Yes, I would have liked to follow a different workflow, but it is what it is and I am where I am.
So I can go through every table and type up everything in Word, but I'm hoping there's some feature in Management Studio that will give me a head start. I read the Help file under "documenting databases," and it says you can output the metadata as and XMLA script. Sadly, it doesn't actually tell you how to do this, which is rather unhelpful.
I'd like to end up with a document that list all my tables, with field definitions, indexes, keys, and triggers. Is there an easier way to get there than going table-to-table and typing it all out?
Thanks,

I'm fairly new to a DBA role, I've been tasked with documenting all the SQL servers/databases. Is there anywhere on the Web where I could find a standard list of what needs to be documented. Any help/advice would be appreciated.

I have a large number of SPs that I would like to be able to document and provide this documentation to prospective clients. That is, provide them enough information without giving them the source code for the procedures.
I have found that all the parameters are in the sys.parameters table.
But I was wondering. Are the fields that are sent back out of an SP captured and recorded somewhere in the SQL Server catalog?
Is there an easy way to find out what fields are coming out of an SP?
Thanks in Advance

I am looking for an easy way to document the specifications of my tables, views, etc. In MS Access, one could use the "Documenter" utility to print out field names, data types, field sizes, and comments. Does SQL Server 2000 have a similar utility?
If not...
1. Why not? This would seem to be very useful.
2. What is the recommended way to document database specifications?
My ultimate goal is to develop an administration manual for our database.
Please note: I looked at the database designer diagram utility which is great for visually representing the relationships between tables. However, I am looking for a utility that will print out the field names, data types, field sizes and comments related to the fields.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks :)
Does anyone have any scripts, or know of any tools, that can scan through all of the SPs that I have inherited, documenting details?
Thx
As part of a project documentation I want to list out the fields of all the tables to say Excel to plug in a description of the field and other notes.
Is there a tool in EM that would facilitate? Or, is there a utility that would work or a SQL script? Any recommendations is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Peter
I know what error 9002 is, but have found no single source documenting the state codes.

I have successfully upgraded my SQL Server 2000 Databases SQL 2005. After the successful upgrade I also migrated all of my SQL 2000 DTS packages using SQL Management Studio -> Management -> Legacy. I can see all these DTS packages and I can also run these.
How can I OPEN these DTS Packages in SSIS (Business Intelligence) for me to make the changes? I am not able to open them and also not able to see them File->open. All these DTS packages are stored in MSDB database.
Thanks !

On my local desktop, I can create and run ssis packages, when I try to do the same thing on server I get he following error right clicking on running packages or stored packages.
failed to retrieve data for this request. Library not Registered. (exception from HRESULT: 0x8002801D
there are 2 instances of SQL on this server. Both are named with one being use by SQLExpress and the other by SQL2005 Std
I'm still getting used to SSIS and I'm wondering how to deploy all 20 of my ssis packages to my sql server 2005 machine in the msdb?
I could open each one and then save a copy as, but by default it doesn't put the name of the package in so I must copy and paste.
thanks.
We have purchased a new Development SQL Server that is running SQL Server 2005. Our existing Development SQL Server is running SQL 2000.

Hello All,
I am working on a migration project of my database(lets name it DB1), from SQL 2000 to SQL 2005. I have some DTS packages in my SQL 2000 database which also needs to be migrated to SSIS. These DTS packages currently interacts with other database(lets name it DB2) which is also in SQL 2000 and which does the data transmission. The real issue is that the other database(DB2) also has some DTS packages which also communicates with DB1 (the db to be upgraded) and so when i migrate my DB1 to SQL 2005, i will have to change my DB2 packages also (although the change will be minor). Now considering that in future I might also migrate my DB2 to SQL 2005 I wanted to know what will be the right approach to follow. One is to modify the DTS packages of DB2 to accmodate the change in connection and the other is to migrate the DTS packages of DB2 also to SSIS.
Can anyone help me with this one.
Thanks in Advance

I am working on a project that has hundreds of DTS packages in use. The company plans to convert the database engine to SQL Server 2005 next month. We do not have time to convert all of the DTS packages to SSIS.
Is there a problem with having the DTS packages connect to SQL Server 2005 databases rather than SQL Server 2000.
Are there any known issues I should be aware of?

I've also done the same on the Step properties under 'Logging'
In Management Studio I've added my login name and I'm the only user using the machine and I manage both Visual Studio and Management Studio

By the way the package (.dtsx) runs fine in BI Visual Studio)
Thank you very much.
Case one - upgrade from SQL 2000 to SQL 2005 in the same box

Case two - install fresh SQL 2005 in a different box

Hi,
I am unclear on Microsofts policy regarding support for DTS and packages that have been imported (but not migrated) to SQL 2005.
The upgrade advisor states
SQL Server 2000 Data Transformation Services
Advisory
SQL Server 2000 Data Transformation Services is deprecated You must completely migrate existing SQL Server 2000 Data Transformation Services (DTS) packages to SQL Server 2005 Integration Services packages before support is withdrawn.
Source Type: MSDB Package
What does this really mean? What will happen to the importing of legacy packages and this whole area within Management Studio? Will these 2005 features no longer be supported? What will happen to the Execute 2000 task? If I upgrade a SQL 2000 instance post 08/04/08 does this mean that I won't receive support from Microsoft even though the package post installation is in SQL 2005. Will the new dts designer in the feature pack be taken away/withdrawn?
To say DTS packages will no longer be supported is a very dramatic statement with far reaching consequences. How is this going to be effectively implemented? Is there really going to be no backward compatibility support in Katmai?
Cheers, James
Hi
Just a brief question,
is there a way of displaying a success or not success message when running (testing) an SSIS package on SQL 2005 ?
Because i have to go through the steps to see if there was an error or not and for large SSIS packages this is a pain.
With DTS 2000 after it ran you got a message saying successfull or not, is there a way to activate this in SQL 2005 ?
I suppose i could just run the job ... but I prefer the other way as sometimes a job fail is a permissions problem, not a SQL/datapump task problem...
I installed SP2 to one of our servers to see what we'd need to do for our Production systems. The server in question is used for a log shipped copy of production, SSRS, SSIS and general duty stuff. I got errors in two areas during the installation -- 1 dealing with SSNS (don't use it yet on that server) and the second being the Client product.
After a reboot I went into a Business Studio solution I've been working on (and using) for several months. None of my packages are working--each having the following problem:
Unable to cast COM object of type 'Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.Wrapper.PackageNeutralClass' to interface type 'Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.Wrapper.IDTSContainer90'.
This operation failed because the QueryInterface call on the COM component for the interface with IID '{8BDFE892-E9D8-4D23-9739-DA807BCDC2AC}'
failed due to the following error: Library not registered. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8002801D (TYPE_E_LIBNOTREGISTERED))..
It seems to be in the designer as it is unable to display the the graphical version but it does let me switch to the code view.
What is the easiest way to troubleshoot and/or fix this?

I have been tasked with upgrading around 150 SQL Server 2000 DTS packages to SSIS in SQL Server 2005 standard edition. I made a backup of the 2000 database upon which the DTS packages operate and restored it to the SQL 2005 server. So far, so good. I have the database in place. Now I need to get the DTS packages themselves into the SLQ 2005 server. I think I need to check my install and make sure that I have the SQL Server 2000 DTS services installed on the SQL 2005 server. I can do that.
However, I wonder what would be the most effective way to physically get the packages from the SQL 2000 server to the SQL 2005 server. Should I use structured storage files? If so, how do I go about opening them in SQL 2005 in order to save them to SQL server 2005?
I should mention that these packages make heavy use of ActiveX scripting so I am looking at rewriting them from scratch to be SSIS packages. I just need the packages on the SQL Server 2005 box so I can make sure I am creating exactly the same functionality in 2005 as existed in SQL server 2000. Each DTS 2000 individual package tends to be fairly simple and I think I can greatly improve the process by consolidating them.
Thanks in advance for any advice.

Hi,
I have many sql 2000 DTS packages that I support from my development workstation running v2000 sp4. Packages are altered on the development machine and then go through a normal release mechanisms to production via testing servers etc.
I have recently installed the client tools for SQL Server 2005 on my desktop to evaluate the product. The 2005 DB instance is running on a seperate server.
So, I have dev edition of sql 2000 and 2005 client tools (including BI Dev studio etc) on my workstation.
I have recently had to make changes to a 2000 DTS package and used my 2000 enterprise manager to do so. No Problem- saved and tested fine on my workstation.
But when I try and release it to another server, or open the package using enterprise manager from another machine that does not have sql 2005 installed - I get an error message 'Unspecified error'. This I've seen before when trying to open packages created in v2000 , using v7 or where the service packs are different between machines.
Digging around my workstation and comparing some of the DLLs I know to be required to distribute DTS packages (from RDIST.txt) it seems that some of the SQL 2000 dll files have been updated by my 2005 installation.
E.g
DTSFFILE.DLL on my machine is 2000.85.1054.0 whilst on any 'clean' 2000 machine is at version v2000.80.760.0
Surely it cant be right that SQL 2005 has newer versions of components for SQL 2000 than is available with the latest SP for the actual product! Especially considering that the installation of 2005 does not even allow you to edit 2000 DTS packages through the management studio without a 'special' download' of the feature pack,(whihc by the way does not work very well either)
So am I to conclude that you can not run side by side installations of SQL 2000 and 2005 on a single machine and expect 2000 to run as it did previously
