)

Parameters

sPackagePath

The fully qualified path of the package.

The name of the server to search for the package.

Return Value

C#
VB
Copy 
static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            // The variable pkg points to the location
            // of the ExecuteProcess package sample 
            // that is installed with the SSIS samples.
            string pkg = @"C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Samples\Integration Services\Package Samples\ExecuteProcess Sample\ExecuteProcess\UsingExecuteProcess.dtsx";
            
            Application app = new Application();
            Package p = app.LoadPackage(pkg, null);
            
            // Save the package under myFolder which is found under the 
            // File System folder on the DTS Service
            app.SaveToDtsServer(p, null, @"File System\myFolder2", "yourserver");

            // Verify that the package was saved by 
            // using ExistsOnDtsServer.
            Boolean packageExists = app.ExistsOnDtsServer(@"File System\myFolder", "yourserver");
            Console.WriteLine("Package exists? " + packageExists);
        }
