Hey Andy,

I'm just coming into the world of SSIS and I'm fighting my corporate DBA's about it.

Can you answer a fundamental question? And I know this probably isn't a good place for this, but...

If I install SSIS on a server that doesn't have SQL Server on it, just SSMS, do I need a full SQL license just to use SSIS to convert some DTS packages? They will eventually run on SQL2008, but we're waiting on the new servers at this point.

Based on lots of postings, I don't believe so. And Microsoft literature seems to be contradictory on the matter.

Thanks

Greg
