When creating DBF file from SSIS why is the file name truncated to 8 chars?

<p>I am in the process of upgrading old SQL 2000 databases to SQL 2008.&nbsp; One in particular uses dozens of sometimes complex DTS packages that the "wizard" did not convert to SSIS in any usable form so I have to build them from scratch using BIDS.</p><p>When creating a DBF file in code I'm using table (file) names up to 10 chars in length as the old SQL2K DTS package did.&nbsp; But when the files are created the name is being truncated to 8 chars.</p><p>The OLDEDB connection</p><p>Data Source=C:\TEMP;Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Extended Properties=dBASE 5.0;</p><p>The code being used to create the DBF table (file)</p><p>CREATE TABLE `BUSECTCOMP` (<br />`ACCOUNT` VarChar (30) , <br />`EFFDATE` DateTime , <br />`BLID` Decimal (10,0) , <br />`SCCODE` VarChar (10) , <br />`SCODEDESC` VarChar (30) , <br />`SCTYPE` VarChar (4) , <br />`SCTYPEDESC` VarChar (30) , <br />`SCUNITS` Decimal (12,2) <br />)</p><p>The table is formatted correctly </p><p></p><p></p><p></p><p></p><p></p><p></p>
