                                            | Is there a way to update the same date multiple times in an SSIS Package?I have an SSIS package in Visual Studio 2008 that has about 20 Execute SQL Task and about 15 Data Flow Task. Is there a way to update the date of 2014-04-10 in each of the 20 Execute SQL Task and in each of the 15 Data Flow Task? I would like to change the date to 2014-04-12 without having to maually change the date in each of the 20 Execute SQL Task and in each of the 15 Data Flow Task.  |
