When I first installed BI Studio everything was working fine, but I went into it today and I noticed that the FTP task seems to be missing, I can't see it in the toolbox, everything else appears to be their but not that.
Any idea how I can get this back, I really don't wont to uninstall and reinstall at the moment, and I'm not even sure if that would work.
ThanksRight-click the toolbox, Choose Items. Select the SSIS Control Flow page and have a look for any missing tasks, those not checked.
I must be missing something, and its starting to fusterate me. Bear with me here.
I created a site for a ...client I guess you'd call it, and made this really slick newletter generator thing. The people from the web enter in their info, and if they want, they sign up for a newsletter -- all tied into a db, 1 table, 4 stored procedures, REALLY simple stuff. They insisted I used a certain webhost which, on paper, looks like it will fit the bill. I'm starting to question that.
On top of the newsletter thing, I created an aspnetdb for the "administration" side of it for her to log into and send out the newsletter so total, there's 2 dbs in the app_data folder. Locally, it works GREAT and on my test box (iis6) that is running 2k5 express. The webhost runs sql2k in (what I consider) a bastardized way. Can't use the management studio, can't use anything except a really weak web-based interface which adds to my fusteration.
Anyway, my questions : 1, is there a way to make the mdf files work with sql2k without having to re-do the whole thing and 2, if I have to redo it, does anyone have an example connection string that might help out?

Did you mean you can only access the SQL2K instance through web? If you have login to the SQL2K, you can register the SQL2K intance in Management Studio by using your account.
1. From your description I understand your website is using attached database file under your app_data. As I know the database you're using should be version 9.0, that means it can be used in SQL2005 or SQLExpress instance, but not SQL2K instance. You can check the version by right clieck the databasefile in Server Explorer->New query-> execute 'SELECT @.@.version'. So you have to transfer the tables in the database files into a database on the SQL2K instance. You can do this by using Import/Export Wizard.
2. The 2nd thing you need to do is change the connection string to point to the SQL2K instance. You can refer to this post:
