I have an update query, and I want to run it as part of a SSIS package.
But to me creating these SSIS packages is looking abit like rocket science.
I know how to create a simple import package and save it as a file. Then right-click and choose edit but then once inside Visual Studio it's all a bit confusing. Is there any tutorials out there that will show me how to edit my simple import package and turn it into an update package.

If anyone else is struggling with this. Its actually far simpler than I thought.
You don't need any dataflow tasks and you only need one connection.
All I did was to put a "Execute a SQL task" on the control flow. DOuble click on it and specify the connection and write the query.
