Change DTS package owner

By Deuce, 2013/06/19

There is a un-documented stored procedure in msdb called sp_reassign_dtspackageowner. Unfortunately, this requires a package name and will only work on one at a time. If one developer is taking over for another, it may be helpful to change all of Bob's dts packages over to Jim. The following procedure will do just that.

Not sure why, but M$'s procedure failed when we tried it. It changed the owner name, but not the SID. It appeared as if it had worked, but the new user still could not change the package. The following code worked nicely.
