How to Import Excel 2007 worksheet that has more than 255 columns into SQL Server 2008 table using SSIS 2008.

I am using Excel source with Microsoft ACE 12.0 OLE DB provider for the Excel connection string, but it only imports the first 255 columns . I used Openrow set property for the excel source , but it does not recognize the columns after the 255th column.

Any help , pointers is greatly appreciated.

Thanks
