| Hello,I have a question that some of you DTS experts may be able to help me with. I would like to create a package that will copy a "Account". from one server to another. There are 100+ tables I need to copy but only a few rows on each (the rows that relate to that particular account). I know I can do this by using the DTS designer to link the two connections(servers) and create 100+ data transformation tasks but I was wondering if there is a easier way? Any assistance would be great.ThanksJCKSQL |

| I wouldn't use DTS for this. Why not just use INSERT INTO SELECT * FROM? You can use linked servers in the query so that it works across servers.Tara |

| tduggan,Linked servers was my first choice, however it turns out it will be much eaisier to deal with the "Powers That Be" if I use DTS (Linked servers is dicouraged where I work). Any other options?Thanks |
