I have a problem with sql job - it fails. When I try to execute each step on its own it works fine with no errors. How is this possible? BTW, the job fails on the step which executes a dts package. The same dts package executes without errors.

Thanks
Katarina"

The tricky part with DTS is that when you test your DTS package from the designer, it runs under the security context of the user you are logged in as. However, when it gets kicked off from the SQLagent scheduler, the job will run from whatever user sqlagent runs under. Many times this is going to be the local system account, which most likely doesn't have rights to things like fileshares on your network.
