                                            | Hi All,I am working on a server movement work.The application is moving from sql server 2000/windows 2000 to sql server2005/windows 2003.I have a DTS package including some stored procedures which operates on the sql server.I am using xp_cmdshell for copying and deleting excel files.And I am using microsoft.jet.4.0 to fill the excel file with data from a temp table.The dts goes fine but it is not copying the excel template from one location to other.Again while deleting the 2 months old file i got an error saying cannot delete the files.It was running correctly in sqlserver 2000.I have enabled the xp_cmdshell feature in the configuration.Please help me and suggest me.Thanks |  |
