I had a flat file connection manager with over 800 columns defined in Fixed Width format that was working fine until yesterday. When I now open a flat file with this connection manager I see those black squares which I think are introducing spaces in the data causing issues. What could have possibly caused this? I did not change anything from the last time I accessed it except that its pointing to the new file. I did check the new file with a new connection manager and it looks ok. No Square boxes so its the connection manager. I do not want to redo the connection manager since it has 800 columns and defining those will take forever. Please help!
Thanks.
