Change owner of a DTS package?

I saved a dts package as a structured file from one SQL
server, then imported to another SQL server. Now, how can I
change the owner of that new package from me to dbo?
Thanks

different than database user. You can specify dts owner
password who can modify the package, and a user password
who can execute it.
To change these passwords you have to save it again with
another name, after opening the dts package in dts
designer, click on Package->Save As, there you can enter
the new passwords.

Joe developer created a dts package on 'oldserver'. The
package was owned by domain\joe. We needed to move the
database that Joe was working in to another server. I did a
backup from 'oldserver' and then restored the database to
'newserver'. Of course Joe's dts packages were not moved by
the backup/restore. I opened his dts packages on 'oldserver'
and did a "save as" with location = SQL Server and the Server=newserver. This moved the packages from oldserver to
newserver. The packages were owned by domain\tom on the
newserver. I'd like to change the package owner from
domain\tom to dbo or even to domain\joe would be ok. Surely
there must be some way to simply change the owner of a dts
package!?
Since then, I've just had Joe to the 'save as' to the new
server. That has solved the immediate problem. I'd still
like to know how to change the package owner.
Thanks

can be ignored. You can find information on the subject in
the Package Ownership Issues article on sqldts.com:
