Cannot edit maintenance plans post SP2

I have some maintenance plans written for SQL Server 2005 SP1. After we
upgraded to SP2 I can no longer edit them. If I select the Maintneance Plans
node in Object Explorer and double click on any plan I get "Microsoft SQL
Server Management Studio is unable to load this document: One or more error
occured."
The popup message box says "Value cannot be null. Parameter name: component
(System.Design)"
Details are:"
Program Location:
at
System.ComponentModel.Design.DesignerHost.System.C omponentModel.Design.IDesignerHost.GetDesigner(ICo mponent component)
at
Microsoft.DataTransformationServices.VsIntegration .DtsDesignerService.OpenDesigner(String connectionString, Object connection, String objectUrn)
at
Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.DatabaseMaintenance .MaintDesignerMenuHandler.Invoke()"
I saw one post that sugget there is a fix that ought to be in cumulative
update package 4, but I can't see any items in that which match this problem.
The maintenance plans appear to run when called by the SQl Agent Jobs they
were initially set up with. However, I am calling one of them from another
Job and this has started throwing this error since SP2:
"Error: 2007-11-04 18:00:01.81 Code: 0xC0024104 Source: Reporting
Task for subplan-{03E683E8-5A40-4697-BF2F-E93EBA6E96E7} Description: The
Execute method on the task returned error code 0x80131904 (Conversion failed
when converting from a character string to uniqueidentifier.). The Execute
method must succeed<c/> and indicate the result using an "out" parameter.
End Error"
but when I went to look at the plan, I couldn't edit it!
Any advice on how to edit the maintenance plans or fix the second error
would be great.
Thanks,
Charles
