I have a fixed width flat file that I'm trying to import, and I'm just about there. The last column that I'm struggling with, is a decimal amount. The data in the column looks like this 00000000500 and I need to dump it into a column as 5.000 In otherwords, the data in the file does not have any decimals, and I'm putting it into a sql server column that has the datatype numeric(11,4) I've set the InputColumnWidth to 11, the DataPrecision to 11 and the datascale to 2, and the value is still being imported as 500.000 Is there any way to achieve this other than using a script component to calculate the value? Thanks!
Add a derived column to take that value and divide it by 100 (or 1000, if you need)|||Thanks for the quick reply, so in other words there's no actual way to handle this situation in the connection manager itself? The solution that you have proposed will work, I was just trying to cut down on the time it takes for the package to process. We have to load a daily file that's about 300mb, so it takes a long time to process. I've cut it down to under a minute, but I was afraid adding another step in the flow would add quite a bit of time. I'm pretty new to SSIS, so please let me know if I'm worrying about it for no reason. Thanks!
|||On a side note, I'd go try this out and test it out for myself, but I'm going to have to apply this derived column transformation on about 150 columns, so I'm trying to get a good idea of what to expect before I get started 
|||Yeah, the connection manager just reads the data as it is. What it currently sees (without a decimal point) is an integer. It is what it is. Either fix it in the source, or use a derived column. Sucks, yes, but that's the way it is.|||Sounds good, thanks for the help!
