Summary
SQL 2000 server's DTS program works without a hitch copying a table from Oracle 10G XE to SQL 2000 Server. The Oracle connection uses a default ODBC connection, whereas in SQL 2005 server, the Integration Services uses the Native Clients and OLE DB providers. Configuring a similar task in Visual Studio's IDE requires attention to a lot more details and is not as intuitive.
