Hello,

I have a series of related DTS packages and I want to use
one .ini file to drive all the Dynamic Property tasks for
all of them.

Once I get to approx. 5K in my .ini file, I seem to hit a
size limitation. The Section drop-down list in the
Add/Edit Assignment dialog box truncates one of the
section names that appears near the end of the .ini file,
and doesn't display any section names appearing further
down in the file. If I re-order the section names, the one
in the same position that was previously truncated is now
truncated, and later section names still don't appear.

Is there a size limitation on the .ini file in a Dynamic
Property task?

Thanks for your help,

Mike van de Vijsel

It seems to be a problem with the GUI for DTS. If you work
programmatically the size of the INI file is limited by
the WIN32 API (which is some big number like 65K).

The following link
http://www.interclasse.com/scripts/class_ini.php has got
some sample source code.

Have a activex script at the beginning of your package
with the above code and set the different property values
for the other objects programatically.
