What should the converted data type of the corresponding column within the Data Converter SSIS Data Flow Component be?

Question

We have the plain Microsoft SQL Server 2008 on one of our servers

We decided to create DTSX files on the filesystem so that we can use BIDS 2008 to open the DTSX files

@vikramsinh-shinde Thanks for the webpage links. The following implementation seemed to ensure that the SSIS package ran properly, however, I hope it's the proper way to handle conversion in the SSIS packages.

1. -varchar(5) column values in Microsoft SQL Server 2008
2. -extracted as string [DT_STR] that has a length of 5 and Codepage of 1252 within SSIS DataFlow Component called OLE DB Source
3. -converted to Unicode string [DT_WSTR] that has length of 5 ( and non-modifiable codePage of 0 ) within SSIS Data Flow Component called Data Converter
4. -loaded into Microsoft Access column values of data type called Text
