Two of the packages were accessing a FoxPro free table using ODBC. Every once and a while the ODBC DSN would corrupt, and we would just recreate it and the package would continue to run fine.

The same thing happened again right after we upgraded the SQL server to 2000. We were able to recreate the DSN and get the package running again, but we can no longer edit the package to make changes.

We also upgraded the SQL tools to SQL server 2000 at the same time we upgraded the Server. I know that you can have problems if you do not have the same version tools as the server. I am at a loss, and I would rather not have to recreate these DTS packages from scratch.

Thank you,
David Fekke"

What do you mean by can't edit? Is it giving you any specific error messages? Do you not see the list of packages in EM? Are you trying to edit the packages from a workstation or the server they run on? We need a little more information to help you out.
