Hi,
Default values in DTS globale variables saved with DTS
and it cause problem.

Example
Default global variables values in dts 'flash_default_values1
SERVER_NAME =SQL_TEST
DB_NAME=bamboo

if we run
dtsrun /S SQL_DEV /E /N 'flash_default_values1 /A "SERVER_NAME":"8"="SQL_DEV" /A "DB_NAME":"8"="price"''

everything is fine

if we run
SQL_DEV /E /N 'flash_default_values1'
dts will not generate error ,but use default values

How to flash default values before execution ?

I tried to use ActiveX as first step in DTS
Function Main()
Dim oGlobalVariables
Dim oVariable
For Each oVariable in DTSGlobalVariables
oVariable.Value = """"
Next
Main = DTSTaskExecResult_Success
End Function

..but it erase value in my input paramters when execution starts

thank you
Alex
