Does anyone know if there are worthwhile 3rd party add-
ons, enhancements, etc. to SQL 2000 DTS?

Examples include:

- Mailing address transformation (converting to standard
postal address)

- Currency conversions from/to US Dollars (Using average
daily rates.)

If there is a 3rd party DTS enhancement market, where is
the best place (magazine, web site) to get up to speed on
it?

Also, if you have an opinion (other than cost) on
enhancing DTS with 3rd party tools vs. purchasing non-DTS
packages like DataStage, Informatica, etc. please let me
know what you think.

Thanks,
Bruce

Trillium, a Division of Harte Hanks used to provide address cleansing custom
transforms, not sure if they still do.
