Hi All,

I am trying to extract data and create a .csv file to place on another server. I have the rights needed to get into the folder and have created the file. Issue is that SSIS does not see this as a valid file. If I change the file to a txt file the job runs with no issue.

Please help and know that I appreciate any and all time and help.

which type of connection you've defined in package? is it flat file or excel destination?. if its flat file, was type selected delimited or fixed width?
