Bringing to you a new video tutorial on Microsoft SQL Server Integration Services

I confess this is my first video tutorial and it is made possible by an evaluation
copy of Adobe's Captivate. Adobe Captivate is an easy to use program.

The video describes fully, in a matter of 10 minutes the SSIS 2005 IDE. SSIS 2008
is almost similar to SSIS 2005 in most respects. The IDE is described in even fuller detail
in my book on integration services, 'Beginners guide to Microsoft SQL Server Integration Services 2005'
published by Packt Publishers in UK.

Adobe Captivate 3 ---> A rapid review

I downloaded a copy of Adobe Captivate 3 and took it to a test drive. It's really cool. Of course, I have only scratched at the surface of what it can do. Believe me it can do a lot.


The basics are presented (using this program) taking the reader through Recording, Editing, Publishing and Quizzing tutorials. These are really well made. There are many other tutorials discussing Audio, Flash Video, Interactivity, and many others. The interface is very friendly and I could get a demo running in no time at all and merge it with my Power Point Presentation slides.

If you are planning for a demo and pressed for time you may want to take a look at this.
