| Hi,I used Import Data Wizard in SSMS to create a SSIS package. Now I would like to use UNION ALL for 3 different source files and thus tried to modify the package in Data Tools. However, for some reason Data Tools is complaining about the string column mappings even though the package (with 1 source file) runs okay in SSMS. For example I have defined in the table in SQL SERVER that the first column is VARCHAR(20) but in Data Tools it is showing string[DT_STR] length 50. Can this be a reason that the string columns are not mapped?? Other column types (eg. double, boolean, date) are mapped okay.thanks for any help.br,Jack |

| you need to make sure the datatypes are all compatible. DT_STR corresponds to varchar in SQL server. also length of destination field should be atleast as same as source field.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------SQL Server MVPhttp://visakhm.blogspot.com/https://www.facebook.com/VmBlogs |
