Meta Data Services

Hello SQL Gurus:
How do I enable the SQL Server Meta Data Services? When I installed the
default instance, during SQL installation for the first time, I did not see
anything about installing meta data services. I am practicing with DTS and in
the Select Source Table And Views page, the SQL Services Meta Data Services
is grayed out and I want to be able to select it and proceed with my tasks in
the 70-228 book about modifying tables and summarizing dta in the
northwindreportdata database using the DTS Import/Export wizard. How do I
enable the meta data services? Thank you.Hi
I have never used this, but one way may be to install the meta data SDK.

SDK. Can you point me in the right direction? Thanks.

I think this is part of the SQL 2000 installation, but I don't remember ever
seeing it!
