Hi Jason,

Thank you for your post.

From your description, my understanding of this issue is: You are
developing a SSIS package and you use the ODBC connection to connect to a
database. You can not see the password after you set the package protection
level to DontSaveSensitive. If I misunderstood your concern, please feel
free to let me know.

According to the SQL Books Online, when you use the Do not save sensitive
(DontSaveSensitive) protection level, sensitive information in the package
is not saved.

For all values, sensitive information is defined as:

1. The password part of a connection string. However, if you choose an
option that encrypts everything, the whole connection string will be
considered sensitive.

2. The task-generated XML nodes that are tagged as sensitive. The tagging
of XML nodes is controlled by Integration Services and cannot by changed by
users.

3. Any variable is marked as sensitive. The marking of variables is
controlled by Integration Services.

To see your password, please change the protection level to
EncryptAllWithPassword or other options.

Here is the article about the protection level:

Hope this will be helpful!
