Although it is possible to place the project in a location other than a subfolder of the solution, doing so
would make it more difficult to locate all of the projects for a given solution. Therefore, we recommend you always
keep your projects for a particular Bi solution together under one visual Studio solution folder.
Note
Creating an SSIS Package
An SSIS project consists of one or more package files. When you first create an SSIS project, its template includes
an empty SSIS package called
Package.dtsx
. The file displays in the Solution Explorer window (Figure
2-26
).
Unless you are creating a throwaway demo package, you should rename the file to something indicating its
purpose. You can do so by right-clicking the file and selecting the Rename menu item from the context menu.
