Hi,

I’m running a .dtsx package (my first ever) to transfer a table with 110,000 rows from one SQL 2005 database on one server to a replicated table in another SQL 2005 database on another server, across a domain. I am using domain admin and SA in SQL. The data looks to be transferring ok but I have just noticed that there are a few warning messages, see below. The IT guy at this college setup permission so I am sure they are ok.

Any help with this would be appreciated as it is going to be a live system. Bear in mind I’m new to dtsx packages!! I’m using an OLE BD SOURCE and OLE DB for the destination. I have searched for answers but not found anyone doing the same thing as me.

Thanks in advance.

The column "Student_Forename" needs to be updated in the external metadata column collection. The column "Surname" needs to be updated in the external metadata column collection.

And then a bit further on this warning.

seems like there's some difference in way columns Student_Forename,surname exists on source and destination. just open package and right click on oledb source . it should try to correct inconsistency itself
