I need to execute that dtsx from a SQL 2008R2 Stored Procedure.Is it possible to run the sp from vs2008 to run the dtsx or would I need to call a sp on the SQL2014 server to execute the dtsx.because of the components used in the dtsx for CRM I cannot build the dtsx on the 2008 Rs server |

                                          | Can it be done asynchronously? If so, you could have the stored procedure start a job that executes the package. If it needs to be synchronous, you could have the stored procedure pause and keep checking the status of the job. Alternatively, you can run the package via xp_cmdshell, but that's highly against best security practices.Tara KizerSQL Server MVP since 2007http://weblogs.sqlteam.com/tarad/  |
