    DTS RunTime Error "received invalid column length from BCP client"

    when i tried to run a DTS which transfer bulk data between 2 SQL servers, i got following error message:
    ================================================== ============
    Error: -2147467259 (80004005); Provider Error: 4815 (12CF)
    Error string: Received invalid column length from bcp client.
    Error source: Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server
    Help file:
    Help context: 0
    ================================================== ===========

    if anybody has encounter the same problem before? after testing, i think it's
    must related with network traffic problem. but i can not figure out how to solve it.

    its occurs because of , one of your columns in sql table doesnt match the field that you send to.

    for example you have a string as "12345" and you try , write it to "number" column, its varchar(3)..

    so sql gives that error because you try to write 5 chars to a max number 3 char column.
