DTS designer has a problem with bit datatype

  • Guys,

    I'm trying to DTS a table (50 columns and 5 of them have a bit datatype) to a text file. Instead of transfering the entire table I use a query to convert a bit datatype to an integer (otherwise designer gives an error - environment is SQL Server 2000 SP3). When I list all 50 columns a designer ignores them,

    listing fewer colums (10 including 2 converted bit columns ) is no problem. BTW the entire query is parsed correctly, I even put the query on a single command line (trying to trick the situation), but a designer ignores it and doesn't allow to transform data. Clicking on define columns gives a memory problem (???). Any ideas ? Thank you, Mike.

  • Without knowing exactly what sort of problems you were having which prompted you to do the conversion at SQL level, I would suggest that you return to tackling this initial problem - perhaps using an ActiveX Transformation for the bit columns.

    Failing that, it would be helpful if you could provide more detail - something we could reproduce.

    Regards,

    David McKinney.
