You can run DTS packages on SQL Server 2000 MSDE, but you’ll need to create them on a full copy of SQL Server and copy them across. Run them using DTSrun.exe
I’ve used MSDE on several occasions under similar circumstances. It’s quite sufficient for small to medium sized websites but if you have anything of complexity then a full version of SQL Server is to be recommended. You’ll most likely need an additional tool too to set up scheduled jobs Lazy Coding’s SQLScheduler is a good solution.
