Hi,

Right now we are using dts in order to import txt.files generated out of an
oracle database. These txt.files are the main loads for existing sql server
objects/tables.

Steps to be taken:
* connect to ftp site with files on it
* copy these files to a file server
* load within existing objects/tables ****if these files have a younger date then
the last used files.

Is there a possibility/tool which tells sql server that the file on the file-
server/ftp-server is younger then the last used files -> start dts package ??

You see quite simple: DTS PACKAGE is only allowed to start when a new file has
been placed on the server (file name off course stays the same).

Thanks for the help/hints/tricks in advance

Johnno
