title: Use 'initial catalog' value from a connection manager as a variable in a SSIS package
body: <p>I am wondering if it is possible to use the 'initial catalog' property from a connection manager as a variable in SSIS. For example to use the value of the connection string to build a string variable that is evaluated as an expression. So far I haven't found anything so I thought maybe someone here have the answer to 'is it possible or not'. </p>
  
  <p>Thanks, and have a good day.</p>
