Import from Access - Datatype conversions

I have to do a lot of inporting from Access files. Is there a place where I can change the default datatype conversion for Access Text from nvarchar to varchar?

Thanks.

If you are using the import wizard then you can affect this with the mapping files at:

%PROGRAMFILES%\Microsoft SQL Server\90\DTS\MappingFiles

I'm guessing that the one you want is JetToSSIS.xml

If you are building packages manually then you can change this in the source adapter.

Outstanding. Exactly what I was looking for.

Thank you.
