Embarrassingly, BIDS was not installed on the machine. I'm new at this, so I'm just starting to get my sea legs with regard to writing queries in ssms and creating packages in VS. I'll have to talk with our agency's IT guy who set the machine up to have it installed. Bless you for getting back to me about this though and perhaps it'll bring a few laughs with regard to my lack of knowledge lol. We all have to start somewhere. Thank you again very much for helping me out. Hope you have a great rest of the week.
No laughing. We've all been there where we thought all the tools we needed were installed, but they weren't, or weren't installed correctly. I try to get the admins to allow me to install all my tools on my laptop instead of letting them do it.
