[dba-SQLServer] Run a DTS package from another DTS Package

Hi Darryl,

I'm pretty sure you can create a DTS package in 2K and just add a
Execute Package Task object and away you go.
Add and chain as many as you like.

Cheers

Michael

Subject: [dba-SQLServer] Run a DTS package from another DTS Package

Hi Folks,

Due to user restrictions at work we have to jump thru many hoops to
automatically schedule a DTS package to run.  To this end we use 3rd
party software called "control-m".  The control M agent is set up to run
a DTS package on SQL Server (2000 in this instance).

As the agent can only call one DTS package at a time and I have many I
need to run, I want to be able to get Control M to call one DTS package,
and that package in turn will execute all the other DTS packages I
require.

Been poking around on Google without much luck. Everyone seems to assume
I can just "schedule" the existing DTS in SQL server, which I cannot.

Anyway... Can anyone help point me in the right direction with this.

cheers
Darryl.
