SSIS: Set Variable Task

UPDATE: Only 2 hours after posting this and Josh has already told me about another one - a Compress File Task.

He's a one-man SSIS custom task machine :)

 

Josh Twist it seems has been bitten by the SSIS bug and is beginning to churn out some really useful SSIS add-ins. Witness his Custom Logging Task that I mentioned last month.

Well now he has come up with another. The Set Variable Task. If you find that its a pain setting variable values using script tasks then this is for you for it does exactly what it says on the tin.

Read Josh's write-up of it here.

Great work Josh!

This looks promising, though when I installed the msi, I can't see the task in the toolbox.. am I being daft here??? Where should I look to find the task ? Or further use it? Thanks,

rgrds,

Do I also need to install it in production server before deployment?
