Problems exporting to an Excel Named Range

    I'm using an Excel Destination to send data to a named range in an Excel Spreadsheet.

    The range is from B3:L14. 11 columns wide, 12 rows.

    Column A3-A14 has month names.

    Row 2 has column headings.

    Row 15 has column totals.

    An OLE DB Source feeds the Excel Destination by running a stored procedure.

    The Excel Destination's Data Source is set to Table Name or view name variable.

    The Variable Name is set to the name of the named range through a variable.

    When the data populates the spreadsheet, the data is going into the correct columns, but it is starting at Row 16.

    I have tried adding a blank row both above and below the named range, but it still goes after the total line.

    How do I get it to go starting at Row 3?

    Thanks,

    How are you setting the named range in excel destination connection?

    I think it should be set to "Command" and the command text should set to "SELECT * FROM [Sheet1$B3:L14]".
