We just changed the sa password and since them non of our DTS packages can be opened or executed

It comes back with the message "Login failed for user sa"

Any hint on how to fix this will be appreciated

Thanks

You could change the sa password back, then go into your DTS packages and save them with a different account, then change the sa password.

You might be able to change the owner_sid column in msdb.dbo.sysdtspackages so that it doesn't use the sa account. That table is where the DTS package is stored.

I recommend not using the sa account when you save your packages, so you do not encounter this problem again.

For some reasons, each time I tried to save the DTS with another username, the system automatically set it back to sa. That was first thing I tried to do but it is not headin me anywhere....
