Thanks guys....the single quote works!!!!!!!!! So glad:) Love this forum!:-D

Btw guys i am wrapping up my work after this. I am asked to prepare for a rerun scenario. I have thought of what to do but i am not sure how to make use of package variable in SQL statements inside the Execute SQL task. For now my plan would be, having a batch file to pass in a current DATE parameter to my package variable called ExecDate. Then i would like to use this ExecDate inside my Execute SQL task such as:

Delete * from Table where CreationDate = @ExecDate.

how can this be done in Execute Sql Task? Btw thanks for suggesting stored procedures, i know that's a better approach, i definitely agree but for this project i am kinda restraint from using stored procedure due to some security issue.
