dts and bit fields

sql2k sp2
If I dts data from a table to a .txt file all of the data
in the bit field gets turned into a "true" or "false"
value. Is there a way to turn this setting off?
TIA, ChrisDid not test, but
turn the column to allow null, then when dts, do not load the column.

In the query or view, use CONVERT or CAST to cast the bit column to integer
(or what you want).
