  • Yeah you can still use DTS in 2008, but I would recommend against it and re-write your DTS into SSIS as DTS has been depreciated since the release of SQL2005 and if I remember correctly is no longer available in SQL2012, so you will need to do this conversion at some point if you wish to upgrade to SQL2012.

    What I would say is read through the SSIS stairway here[/url] to start to understand SSIS and refactor your DTS packages into SSIS packages.

    Google will also provide you with some good resources on the topic of SSIS.

    The basics of getting DTS to work in SQL 2008 can be found by reading this MSDN article here
