add column and modify a column name in SSIS 2008 package
I am not SQL person but try to learn. Just too much to learn. We have someone created a SSIS import /export package which was not published into SQL. 1) how to modify some column in the SSIS package such as change CLientID to ClientNumber. 2)How to develop SSIS package into SQL DB? I tried it by following some free tutorial but I cannot see develpe option by right click Manifest file.

First create a project in BIDS and then add this package, thereafter through the right click menu use Edit on most items of interest. Arthur My Blog

BID is created already. I want to know how to add column. I reconfigured a text file to generate 18 columns but I only can see Available Input Column but cannot see anything to map the number 18 (column) in Available destination column How to add a column in GUI or query in SSIS not on SQL DB?

This is not the right place to do that modification. To rename a column use the Advanced Editor on the source (right click on it) in the link I provided above.Arthur My Blog

Thanks! So I can add a column by using the Advanced Editor?

No to add you need a Derived Column Transformation (the easiest approach) see the add as new: http://sqlblog.com/blogs/andy_leonard/archive/2009/02/04/ssis-expression-language-and-the-derived-column-transformation.aspxArthur My Blog
