SSIS Error While Loading XLS from SQL DB

  • Hi,

    Though I have worked with SQL server and Informatica...I am new to SSIS.

    I am trying to load XLS from SQL DB using SSIS.

    I am getting below error.

    Column Stdnum can not convert between unicode and non unicode string data types

    I did googled for the error ..and put data Data Conversion Transformation to convert source Non Unicode string type to match target Unicode String type.

    So mu source Stdnum column is varchar(20) DT_STR

    I am using Data Conversion Transformation to change data type to DT_WSTR(255)

    Target XLS column is Stdnum is DT_WSTR (255)

    I am still getting same error.

    Can I know what wrong I might be doing ?

    Also I remember when I used to load XLS through Import - Export vizard /DTS never got such issue.

    Its funny that 2 MS applications can not talk to each other smoothly.

    Thanks in advance!

  • When you do a Data Conversion transform you get a new column and then you need to map the new column to the destination. I'm guessing you are still getting this error because you did not change your mapping at the Destination.
