I'm trying to export a SQL 2005 express database to SQL 2000 without success, really a pain in the ass :-(
But I found that it may be a hope but I can't find the page to download the in this page mentioned additional download for SQL 2005 express that will add DTS functionality to it.

I've did exactly as i read above . On instalation didn't ocured any errors but when i go to C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\90 i don't find the DTS folder.

Can you tell me if it is because i have SQL EXPRESS 1 ? If this is the probleme i will try to upgrade to SQL Express 2 .

Thank you.

Try to download SQLEXPR_TOOLKIT.EXE first and then retry.

Hi,

did you ever manage to install dtswizard?

I'm having the same problem and wondered if you could assist?

Regards

Steve

I followed the steps above and now have the dts directories and stuff (i installed the MSI first and nothing changed, then I installed the 200meg exe file and it told me I 'had everything' already and it just upgraded me)

My new problem is that I am using DTS to make a temporary database for developement purposes. I transfer from SQL server DB to an MS Access mdb file.
My problem occurs in that DTS seems to be limited in exporting tables. I cannot export more then 63 tables at a time (I think I have 80 in total) I have to run through the wizzard a second time to get the rest of the tables. My end result appears to be what I wanted, but it's messy and time consuming, not easily done on the fly.

In all fairness it might not be a table count restriction so much as a "how much data can be moved at once" since some of those tables have a good amount of rows.

Can anyone else confirm these results?

EngKaso -

Doesnt work for me. Followed your instructions exactly. There is no DTS directory where you suggest. Furthermore, there is no indication that a new program has been installed and nothing in the Start menu.

What am I missing here ?

I have just installed SQLEXPR_TOOLKIT.EXE and the DTS directory is present under 90. The installation is not very intuitive because the components are unchecked by default (with a big X) and the short description displayed when clicking on the components names gives no clue on which contains the DTS. I selected all components and got the DTS - now I need to try it to import my data.

Thank you all for the hints.

Pierre.

|||Thanks for bothering to answer yourself - really helped me!|||This is just what I was looking for. I am in the process of the download - looking forward to see it work.|||

Thanks for posting this. Helped with tedious task. To share my install experience with others, also could not find the DTS Wizard after installing the MSI. Did remember from previous use that it could start with a run dtswiz command.

After verifying this still worked using run on start menu, simply went to SQL Express Tools > External Tools > Add.

Entered DTS Wizard for title and dtswiz.exe for command. Works nicely.

Surely you mean DTSWizard.exe? DTSWiz.exe is the standard SQL Server 2000 component. I ran the .msi, but I'm not sure that this .exe was installed by it, as the date on the C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\90\DTS folder suggests that it was installed when the product was installed.

Can anyone at Microsoft give us a list of files and their locations that are installed by SQLServer2005_DTS.msi?
