Here is the next in my series of posts explaining how common tasks in DTS can now be implemented in SSIS.
Capture number of rows with RowsComplete
Easy one this. In DTS it was possible to capture the number of rows processed using the RowsComplete property of a task. In SSIS it is possible to capture the number of rows flowing through a data-path using the Rowcount component.
Also, when SSIS has inserted all data into a destination it fires an OnInformation event reporting the number of rows.
