Visual Studio 2017 SSIS Package - Excel Source Generating Error at Data Flow Task 1 - No column information returned by SQL command

I'm using an SSIS package (MS Visual Studio 2017) to import an Excel spreadsheet (97-2003 Workbook) into a table (SQL Server Management Studio 2017). The import needs to skip over the first four rows because the column headings start on row 4. Here is an example:

I use a SQL script to skip the first four rows in the spreadsheet: 

SELECT F1,F2,F3,F4,F5,DATE() AS InsertDate
FROM [Jobs$]
WHERE 
F5 IS NOT NULL 
AND F5 <> "Service Address"
This code works in the SQL Server Import and Export Wizard but when I try to use it to create an Excel Source in a Visual Studio SSIS package, I get the following error message:

Is there a fix for this?
