Default dynamically set global variables - 05-09-2006 , 11:33 AM






I have inherited a large number of DTS packages that have db logins/passwords
hard coded in the global variables section. I want to change these to have
the login/password stored in a central parameter table and have the packages
look them up when they run. Is there a way to do this in Sql 2k? or any other
method?
thanks!!

You can use the dynamic properties task to set the values
for the global variables. The source for the values in the
dynamic properties task can be a query.
