where to get syntax reference?

[beefeater267]

Hey,

I'm new to DTS and learning about how alot of operations involved VBScript (ActiveX). I'm familiar w/ VBScript, however, not w/ certain of these objects related to DTS....

DTSGlobalVariables.Parent
oPkg.Tasks("DTSTask_DTSDataPumpTask_1").CustomTask

just for example..... where can i find a good reference for the methods of these objects and even.. what are the standard objects used for DTS programming in VBScript?

Thanks

Beefeater267,

Books Online can be found within Query Analyzer. From EM, Select Tools, SQL Query Analyzer. Once Query Analyzer is open, Select "Help", "Transact-SQL Help". You are now in Books Online.

You can also get to this directly from Windows - Programs - Microsoft SQL Server - Books Online

Search for "Using ActiveX Scripts in DTS" There are some really good DTS specific ActiveX script samples in this section.
