Help, control flow items do not "kick off" properly 1

[sqlsadie108]

Hi,

Here's my problem. I have 2 tasks defined in my Control Flow tab:

EXECUTE SQL--------->EXECUTE DTS 2000 PACKAGE

When I attempt to run it, by right-clicking the EXECUTE SQL task, and selecting "Execute Task", it only runs the EXECUTE SQL part (successfully), and does not "kick off" the EXECUTE DTS 2000 PACKAGE, after it is done running (even though it completes successfully, as shown by the green box).

Yes, they are connected by a dark green arrow, as indicated in my diagram above.

Why is this?? Am I missing something here? Need help.

THANKS

If you right click on a object within the editor and click "Execute Task" it runs only that object. To run more than one task you need to either run the entire package or put the group of objects that you want to run within a grouping container and run the container.

Duh, yes I knew that, I just forgot. I've only been using SSIS for 3 days now.

no problem. There is a pretty big learning curve between DTS and SSIS.
