• Visual Studio Express Editions Platform SDK samples

• SQL Server Where are the SSI files saved when saved to the server?

  This is a pretty simple question, but I'm going nuts trying to find the answer. After creating an SSI package, I told it to save to the SQL server... Now where do I go to pull that package up again and make changes and/or execute the package msdb .. sysdtspackages90 is the actual table that stores the package. To edit a package you use Visual Studio (aka BIDS), not SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS). You ca ...Show All

  Hi all, So, here is my problem. I've done a little Today Plugin using VS2005 Beta 2.
