Hi,

I am converting a DTS package to ssis and getting some error saying "DTSGlobalVariables.Parent" is not accessible to ssis, my code below is in VB Script. Please help me on this front.

' 243 (Excel Named Range)
Option Explicit

Function Main()

Dim sActualLocationOfData
Dim Excel_Application
Dim Excel_WorkBook
Dim Excel_WorkSheet
Dim oPkg
Dim oConn

' Location, which sheet and in which cells is our Data.
' This will produce a string like Sheet1!R14C8:R11C43

sActualLocationOfData = "=Sheet" & CStr(DTSGlobalVariables("SheetNumber").Value) & _
"!" & DTSGlobalVariables("DataLocation").Value

' Create and set up the Excel File to Import
Set Excel_Application = CreateObject("Excel.Application")

' Open Excel Workbook
Set Excel_WorkBook = Excel_Application.Workbooks.Open(DTSGlobalVariables("FileLocation").Value)

' Get the Worksheet
Set Excel_WorkSheet = Excel_WorkBook.Worksheets(Cint(DTSGlobalVariables("SheetNumber").Value))

' Tell Excel where to get the data and add a named range to the workbook.
' The DTS pump is expecting a source table of "ImportTable" so we name our range that.
Excel_WorkBook.Names.Add "ImportTable", sActualLocationOfData

' Save the changes back to the workbook. If you fail to do this then you will get
' a message box asking you if you want to make changes to the Excel spreadsheet
Excel_WorkBook.Save

' Clean Up Excel Objects
Excel_WorkBook.Close
Set Excel_WorkBook = Nothing
Excel_Application.Quit
Set Excel_Application = Nothing

' Now set the Excel Filename on the Connection
Set oPkg = DTSGlobalVariables.Parent
Set oConn = oPkg.Connections("Excel File")

oConn.DataSource = DTSGlobalVariables("FileLocation").Value

' Clean Up DTS objects
Set oConn = Nothing
Set oPkg = Nothing

Main = DTSTaskExecResult_Success
End Function

Thanks in advance.

Rgds,
Abhi

you cant use DTSGlobalVariables.Parent in SSIS
Actually there's no direct equivalent method in SSIS
In SSIS you do this by means of package configuration where you've configuration type called parent package variable to access variables in parent package
