I'm needing some advice on why a Local Package in Data Transformation Services won't run when scheduled.
I'm running SQL Server 7.0.
I can execute the package successfully by right clicking on it and clicking "execute package". Here's the problem, when I schedule the package (once a day at 3:00 pm), everything seems ok, but it doesn't run! I have set up an error handling log file, in the properties menu, but nothing is even recorded in the log file.
I've searched through SQL Server help and still no answer.
If you have any suggestions on what I might be forgetting, or doing wrong, please reply!

Thanks in Advance

Is the agent running.
Is the job enabled
Is the schedule enabled
...

==========================================
Cursors are useful if you don't know sql.
DTS can be used in a similar way.

Agent is running.
How do I tell if the job is enabled and the schedule enabled?

Thanks.

Just go to EM, right click on the job, go to properties, the first screen should have a check box in it for enabled, then go to the schedule tab and take a look at your schedule and see if the enable box is checked. Both of them must be checked in order for it to work. The schedule gets unchecked if you ever setup the schedule to occur only once. So you have to go back in and enable if you schedule it to occur again. This does not happen on recurring schedules.
