Hi All-

I have a situation here; I need to give permission to one of the developers to run a DTS package in production. I am trying to simulate in testing environments. Can anybody give me some thoughts on how would I need to go about this?

Thanks in advance!

provide him a user password to run the dts, else create an sp, that will run the dts, give the programmer permission to execute the sp
or create a GUI with a button to click that will run the dts.

Thanks for the quick solution. Now, I have something else to do with the same subject. Here it goes,

I had an argument with my coworker on granting privileges to a developer on a production box, to build a DTS package.

Well, my question was that can a developer having a NT login authentication, with select permissions on all the tables in the database, can he/she build a dts package successfully with no permission problems ?

My answer is ‘yes’, it is possible. Any thoughts on this, from anybody in the forum?

Thanks in advance!
