Excel destination column max number of characters

$

Hi All,

I am trying to export data from a SQL DB to excel 2007 file and one of the columns sometimes has data more than 255 characters long. I can change the source to be Unicode string [DT_WSTR] 500, but the excel destination won't let me increase the column width to more 255.

Is this a limitation of excel 2007 and I just have to accept it? from what I have read i think this might be the case. I can't change it to csv.
