When I use DTSRUN command in NT batch script to load data from a flat file into a table in SQL SERVER 2000, I get the following error message:

DTSRun: Loading...



Error: -2147220438 (8004042A); Provider Error: 0 (0)

Error string: The specified Storage File contains multiple Packages; Loading requires a Name or Guid.

Error source: Microsoft Data Transformation Services (DTS) Package

Help file: sqldts80.hlp

Help context: 704

For now, I got around this problem by deleting the existing Structured Storage File and creating the SSF again. PLEASE NOTE THAT I DID NOT MAKE ANY CHANGES TO THE DTS PACKAGE.

But, I would like to know the exact cause of this problem.

I am using SP3 for SQL SERVER 2000.


Thanks for your time,
Ashok"
