QUESTION POSED ON: 05 December 2007
We have just migrated to SQL Server 2005. We need to find all the old DTS packages that reference a specific table. Is there a query that will allow me search the text of all my old DTS packages?

>
EXPERT RESPONSE
This is something I looked into with a recent client. We were able easily see what database objects such as Stored Procedures, Views, Triggers, User Defined Functions accessed specific tables, but not DTS packages.
