I am using an SSIS package to import data from Visual FoxPro to a SQL Server table. I tried to define the target field for the Memo field Fox data as varchar(max) and I get a message, "The column "instruct" can't be inserted because the conversion between types DT_STR and DT_TEXT is not supported." And "Error at Data Flow Task[SSIS.Pipeline]: "SQL Server Destination" failed validation and returned validation status "VS_ISBROKEN". If I use a varchar(254) field for the target no data comes over.
Any suggestions?
