Hi All,
I am looking to migrate the SQL 2000 applications to SQL Server 2008
and the OS will be Windows 2003 Server.
the server where we run a lot of DTS's. I understand that SQL 2008
requires some add-ons to be downloaded and installed to make DTS's
work.
Can you please let me know which type of add-ons I need to download it? and where can I get that?
Thanks in advance,
Vamsi.

In the following link, install SQLServer2005_BC.msi hope that will help you.

Vamshi,

I had faced a similar upgrade.

Let me put it to you simply, YOU WILL NEED TO RE-WRITE ALL DTS PACKAGES IN SSIS (SQL 2008)

that is ofcotre if you want a successful migration.

Soory but there is no easy way out of this one.

Kindest Regards,

You will need to convert the DTS packages to SSIS eventually, but it's perfectly acceptable to run them in SQL 2008 and convert them over time. We have plenty of DTS packages running fine in SQL 2005 and SQL 2008 while we rewrite them one at a time. Download and install the components linked in Nag's post after installing sQL 2008, then migrate the DTS packages.
