The packages will not open and the message is "An integration services class could not be found". I am using VS 2008 and SQL Server 2008 (32 bit).

Hi saraftatum,

All packages were created using VS2008 and SQL Server 2008 with SP1. I was able to open up a sampling of packages successfully. Could you please let us know which package is giving you trouble?

Thank you,
Jessica

Hi mamatucci,

A few things to try:
1. Make sure you have the latest SQL Server client tools installed installed on your machine.
2. Uninstall and reinstall BIDS.
3. Check to see if any other packages produce the same error.

Do any of those help?
Jessica
