I am currently making a DTS to import some data.

I need to add some fields to store some IDs so I add a SQL Task to add them.. all ok.. once the data has been imported I want to remove the fields so I add another SQL Task to remove them... BUT if the DTS fails half way through the fields are left there. So when I run it again it errors on adding the fields as they exist. I have tried adding a flow so it fails it then removes them then goes back and adds them again BUT it just ignors me and just stops after removing them!

Does anyone know a simple solution to this?

Thanks

Leah
