The Step object controls the flow and execution of tasks within the Data Transformation Services (DTS) package. Each step is associated with a single task, although association with no task is possible. Step execution sequence is determined by the precedence constraints. A step cannot start execution until all its precedence constraints are satisfied.
The Step object is compatible with Microsoft® SQL Server™ version 7.0. For more information about an extended version of this object, see Step2 Object.
