		<title>Creating Configurable and Portable SSIS Packages Part 3</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In this article I’ll conclude my set of articles into SSIS configuration.  This article will be slightly more verbose than the previous two, but I hope I clearly convey the logic behind my method.  If you haven’t yet done so, please read Part 1 and Part 2 of the series.
The Portability problem

		<title>Creating Configurable and Portable SSIS Packages Part 2</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In Part 1 I showed how a simple SSIS package could be created using variables and expressions as a basis for deployable configuration.
When I first started working with SSIS I assumed naively that during deployment, a wizard or a configuration file would allow the variables and expressions to be readily editable.
Speaking of which, how do [...]]]></description>

		<title>Creating Configurable and Portable SSIS Packages Part 1</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This is the first part of a two-part post about creating and deploying a simple SSIS package.
When I first started this I was a complete novice as regards SSIS.  I thought it was &#8217;something like&#8217; DTS, which I had used quite frequently in SQL Server 2000.  To make matters worse, I never actually [...]]]></description>

		<title>Get a comma-delimited list of columns</title>
		<description><![CDATA[One of the things I&#8217;ve been doing recently has been writing lots of SQL inserts in which I&#8217;ve had to specify the columns.
For example:




INSERT INTO tblMyTable


&#40;&#60;column list&#62;&#41;


SELECT &#60;column list&#62; FROM tblMySourceTable



The most tedious part was writing the column names in a comma-separated list.  It would be good if I could automagically create a list [...]]]></description>

		<title>How to tell what has changed in a SQL Server Database</title>
		<description><![CDATA[One of the things I&#8217;ve had to do recently is work out if objects on a SQL Server had been modified after a particular date.  I did some Googling and came up with the following which I&#8217;ve condensed into one simple and easy to read article.
Just one caveat before we dive in: these scripts [...]]]></description>

		<title>How to Import and Export DTS packages quickly</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This article applies to DTS packages on SQL Server 2008 R2, but will probably work on most other versions.  Yes I know, I know - DTS is deprecated.  But bear with me.  There is a lot of DTS still hanging around out there.  
How to export DTS packages to binary file

		<title>Setting up IIS Express</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This is a brief post describing how I set up IIS Express on Visual Studio 2010.  Using the built in Visual Studio Development Server (a.k.a Cassini) is great in many cases but it has a few limitations, for me the most significant are
•	No SSL support
•	Can only run localhost – so nobody can browse to [...]]]></description>

		<title>Only 24 hours</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Like most technical people who scour the web for information, I&#8217;ve come across some really smart people who write their thoughts, offer help, write tutorials, and also somehow manage to hold down a day job AND manage to (presumably) have a life outside of work.
One of the most impressive people has got to be Scott [...]]]></description>

		<title>Black Screen of Death</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In the last few days we have seen a huge surge in people experiencing what has become known as the &#8220;Black Screen of Death&#8221; - a bit of a play on the infamous Blue Screen of Death (both are now being called the BSOD).
The problem affects Windows OS&#8217;s from XP through to Windows 7.  [...]]]></description>

		<title>MCMS, XML Web Service and AJAX Data Collection</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Recently I found myself having to create a system by which I could capture some user data from a web application using some unobtrusive javascript.
I settled on a system using jQuery, jQueryUI and an XML Web Service.  The basic idea is quite simple: the user clicks a hyperlink, this triggers a form to pop [...]]]></description>
