There are multiple Transform Data Tasks in a DTS Package. They transfer data individually. I tried to use one Execute Process Task. If one of the Transform Data Tasks fails, the Execute Process Task supposes to execute an .exe to send email notification. The problem is if one Transform Data Task fails, the Execute Process Task doesn't run. Any idea how it supposed to work?

Thanks.

You need to handle this with workflow.

I had all Transform Data Task on Failure go to the same Execute Process Task using Workflow, but if only one failed and all others were success the Execute Process Task didn't run. Do I have to use one Execute Process Task for each Transform Data Task? There are over 100 Transform Data Tasks in the DTS Package. Thanks.

Could you post a picture of the DTS package? We don't need to see all of the Transform data tasks, just some of them with the workflow and the execute process task.

You would need to post it on a website where you have access to upload files.
