Anyway, I guess the best thing to do is to not use reserved keywords as identifiers for any database object. But then, who would actually use those as table...

Is the package running on the same server as the SQL Server Destination?

1. The syntax is as follows: (boolean_expression) ? expression_if_true : expression_if_false

2. There is no IsNumeric function in the derived column, but you can build it with a script component:

(was it a distraction from the real question?)

You can also script out dtutil to move packages from one server to another.

Happy Valentine's Day!

QA is where some developers send their code to see if it works correctly or not. Often they do this without verifying...

So you must decompress folder, but you can't use an exe to decompress them.

That's quite a deadlock.
