By using the SSIS_META is it possible to view or retreive the length of columns in a particular transformation?

DECLARE @LookupColumn varchar(200)
DECLARE @LookupTable varchar(200)
DECLARE @Database varchar(200)
SET @LookupColumn = ‘ColumnName’
SET @LookupTable = ‘TableName’
SET @Database = ‘DatabaseName’

DECLARE @Statement NVarchar(Max)
SET @Statement = ‘declare @dbname sysname ‘
+ ‘declare @objid int ‘
+ ‘declare @sysobj_type char(2) ‘
+ ’select @objid = object_id, @sysobj_type = type from ‘ + @Database + ‘.sys.all_objects where name = ”’ + @LookupTable + ”’ ‘
+ ‘if exists (select * from ‘ + @Database + ‘.sys.all_columns where object_id = @objid) ‘
+ ‘begin ‘
+ ‘declare @numtypes nvarchar(80) ‘
+ ’select @numtypes = N”tinyint,smallint,decimal,int,real,money,float,numeric,smallmoney” ‘
+ ’select ”Column_name” = name, ‘
+ ‘ ”Type” = type_name(user_type_id), ‘
+ ‘ ”Length” = convert(int, max_length), ‘
+ ‘ ”Prec” = case when charindex(type_name(system_type_id), @numtypes) > 0 then convert(char(5),IsNull(ColumnProperty(object_id, name, ”precision”),”0”)) else ”0” end, ‘
+ ‘ ”Scale” = case when charindex(type_name(system_type_id), @numtypes) > 0 then convert(char(5),OdbcScale(system_type_id,scale)) else ”0” end, ‘
+ ‘ ”Nullable” = case when is_nullable = 0 then ”false” else ”true” end ‘
+ ‘from ‘ + @Database + ‘.sys.all_columns where object_id = @objid AND [name] = ”’ + @LookupColumn + ”’ ‘
+ ‘end ‘

exec(@Statement)

SELECT O.ObjectName,
A.ObjectAttrValue As ObjectDesc,

Thanks for this mirror.
It’s a pity that when you use not native components in a package the DependancyAnalyser will not be able to do it’s job.

Is there another tool more recent ?
