Default Rename DTS Package - 04-22-2004 , 12:34 PM






Hi!

Can I rename a DTS Package. I have a big list of Packages
with indisciplined naming convention. I am planning to
rename all these packages by applying a proper naming
convention.

Can someone explain me how to rename the packages. I would
not like to use the Save As option as it is time consuming
besides, it will not move all the Versions of these
packages.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Regards
Zaki

You can rename packages. I would never advise altering them directly in the
system tables so one way of doing it is to open the packages
programmatically and save them out to the new name.

Thank you for you response but am still looking for a
better solution, which allows me to keep the package
versions intact.
