Moving all DTS packages from server to server

Hi,
Is there any way of copying ALL DTS Packages from server to server
apart from direct copy of sysdtspackages table and saving them one by
one?
ThanksThis tool can copy all packages or individual packages, and it also has
a command line version, so you can automate copying:

Move System and User database

Dear All,
Is it possible to move system(master, model, msdb and so on...) and user
database to another sql server by just copying all ldf and mdf files in data
directory while the sql on the source server is down?
Any problem using this method instead of backup and restore?
as I don't want to detach the database from source server.
Thanks for any advices

I've already read through these documents.
However, I wonder what will I miss if I move all data including SYSTEM
database to new server.
any problem with that?
besides, will the sa password be moved to the new server if system database
moved? if not where the sa password stored?
Thanks for any advice

Move SQL Server Express .mdf file to SQL Server 2000

Is this even possible? I tried to move an existing Sql Server Express .mdf file to SQL Server 2000 by copying the .mdf file to the server's folder and then tried to attach it. I get:

Error 602: Could not find row in sysindexes for database ID 9, object ID 1, index ID1. Run DBCC CHECKTABLE on sysindexes.

I realize that I'm moving back a version in SQL, however the structure of the database is very simple. Does anyone know?

Even if I can just script the thing to SQL 2000 would be helpful, however the .mdf is a file within my ASP.Net site, and does not show up in my Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express under the appropriate SERVERNAME\SQLEXPRESS either, so I can't figure out how to script it out?

I found this in another post that allowed me to script out the data and the database itself

Move SQL 2000 Data To SQL 7

We have a problem with our SQL 2000 server which we know is a product bug.
Is there anyway of importing, Copying the sql 2000 table back down to SQL 7 until the issue is resolved,
many thanksMy first suggestion would be the DTS Wizard (http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dtssql/dts_tools_wiz_9e5g.asp). You can use a Linked Server (http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/adminsql/ad_1_server_4uuq.asp), but it is a lot more work than a simple DTS package that does the same job in most cases.
