DTS in SQL Server Management Studio 2008

I'm running SQL Sever 2008 Management Studio (Developer Edition) on an XP machine.
Unfortunately I still have to manage some DTS packages for SQL Server 2000, and wanted to do that without having to install SQL Server 2000 Enterprise Manager.

In SQL Server 2008 Object Explorer, going to Management->Legacy->Data Transformation Services, I could see all the DTS packages, however right-clicking and selecting open gave me this error:

SQL Server 2000 DTS Designer components are required to edit DTS packages. Install the special Web download, "SQL Server 2000 DTS Designer Components" to use this feature. (Microsoft.SqlServer.DtsObjectExplorerUI)

So these are the steps I followed that worked for me, and now I could open a design-time DTS package window from SSMS 2008:

1- Download and isntall the latest Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Backward Compatibility Components (I know it says 2005 but that's what you need for SSMS 2008 as well.  Also make sure you get the latest release, the one in this link is for December 2008)

2- Download and install the latest Microsoft SQL Server 2000 DTS Designer Components:

3- At this point try right-clicking on a DTS package in SSMS 2008 and select Open, if you still get the error, follow these steps that I got from the reference site below:

 To ensure that the DTS designer can be used in SQL Server Management Studio

  1. Copy the files, SEMSFC.DLL, SQLGUI.DLL, and SQLSVC.DLL, from the %ProgramFiles%\Microsoft SQL Server\80\Tools\Binn folder to the %ProgramFiles%\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Tools\Binn\VSShell\Common7\IDE folder.

  2. Copy the files, SEMSFC.RLL, SQLGUI.RLL, and SQLSVC.RLL, from the %ProgramFiles%\Microsoft SQL Server\80\Tools\Binn\Resources\1033 folder to the %ProgramFiles%\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Tools\Binn\VSShell\Common7\IDE\Resources\1033 folder.

Note that the second step is the RLL files (not DLL).  I also added "\1033" at the end of the paths shown on the reference site.
