Hi

My friend wants to migrate his database in SQL 2005 to SQL 2008.He has some SSIS packages running on his SQL 2005 database.
a) How will these packages be affected by changing the database version to 2008.
b) What else needs to be considered for migration of stored procedures & other DB objects in 2005 to 2008?

Any help is very much grateful.

Run the upgrade advisor for 2008, also test all packages work in their 2005 format, otherwise upgrade them in BIDS 2008, test and redeploy.

The upgrade advisor will tell you if it sees any problems in upgrading from 2005 to 2008 and then you can take the nessesary action.
