Yeah. SSIS has some serious holes in it, especially when it comes to forcing specific formats on data that doesn't match the collation of the server. It's like Excel that way, automatically dropping leading zeroes off of Zip codes and things like that.
There are time when I wish Microsoft devs wouldn't assume they know more about what I need/want than I do.
