Re: copying server objects



You can copy DTS packages by opening up the current package and choosing "Package/Save As..." from the menu bar. Be careful to make sure your database references within the DTS package are still appropriate on the new server.

Both jobs and alerts can be scripted and that script executed on the new server - right click the jobs or alerts and choose "All Tasks/Generate SQL Script...". More than one job or alert can be selected at a time if you desire.

Good luck,

I want to copy a database from one server to another.  I'm happy about
how to do this but also want to copy a number of DTS packages, jobs and
alerts that relate to this database.  Is there any way that I can copy
them or will I need to create them again on the new server.

Many Thanks
