SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) 2012 doesn't support migrating or running DTS packages.  You do have the following options for migrating your DTS packages to SSIS 2012.



  • Migrate the packages to SSIS 2005 or SSIS 2008, and then upgrade the packages to SSIS 2012. For information about migrating packages to 2005 or 2008, see http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms143501(SQL.90).aspx (2005) and http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms143501(SQL.100).aspx (2008) in Books Online.




  • Recreate the SQL Server 2000 Integration Services packages by using SSIS 2012. The http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb522534.aspx in Books Online provides an overview of the new features in SSIS 2012. The http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms141134.aspx topic describes the elements of an SSIS package.



Here is a list of the DTS functionality that has been discontinued in SSIS 2012.




  • DTS runtime




  • DTS API




  • Package Migration Wizard for migrating DTS packages to the next version of
    Integration Services




  • Support for DTS package maintenance in SQL Server Management Studio




  • Execute DTS 2000 Package task




  • Upgrade Advisor scan of DTS packages.
