Default DTS Package Order - 04-24-2006 , 10:05 AM






This is driving me crazy. It appears when you try to select the Package Name
for a Execute Package Task, the drop down list is populated by
sp_enum_dtspackages. The problem is that this sorts by package ID and not by
package name. There doesn't seem to be a way to modify sp_enum_dtspackages
since it is a system stored procedure. Is there anyway to get the list to
sort by name?

How about just query sysdtspackages and order by name yourself?

I can get a name ordered list. What I can't figure out how to do is get the
drop down in the GUI to use a name ordered list.

Ok So I have just reread the original post and in this case I know of no way
to change the behaviour of the Execute Package task to give you the list any
other way than executing the proc you mention.

If you know what package it is you want then you could use an Active Script
task to call that package itself instead of using the task.
