Moving Jobs and DTS to another server!

I have a number of DTS packages that I have scheduled and so I have a list of Jobs. Within each Job there is a step that contains the DTSRun command to run the DTS package. My problem is that the DTSRun command is encrypted (/~Z etc...) and I want to move the jobs and DTS packages from SQL Server 7 to SQL Server 2000. I can easily move both the Jobs and Packages but the encrypted command still points to the old server and I don't know how to regain the relationship between DTS Package and Job. Any help greatly appreciated as i wasn't bald two days ago!!!
 
You can change the dts run command to use the package name instead - see dtsrun in bol.

I always call an SP to run dts packages which logs the call and completion and sets any glabal parameters.

Cursors are useful if you don't know sql.
DTS can be used in a similar way.
