 Hey, I may not know SSIS, but I do have experience of OLE DB, and
 I doubt that SSIS performs any parsing of its own. So the problem
 should appear about any code that uses OLE DB.
 
 But you are right that I did not understand the question in full, but
 I'm used to that: too many questions are posted with incomplete
 information.

 Ah, my bad. That much I know of SSIS that it can use either an OLE DB
 provider or SqlClient, so I should have given that advice.
 
 
 <Aside>
 Actually some time back, I had a bit of fun in our private MVP forum. A
 fellow MVP had just started using SSIS on a gig, and was not able to
 get parameters to work, and made noise as if it was a misdesign in SSIS.
 That is about the only time I've composed an SSIS package, just to show
 how to get parameters working, which I was able to. I think my MVP
 colleague's problem was that he had had very little experience of client-
 side programming overall.
