DTS- Destination Column Name has spaces causing error

I am using Advantage ODBC 6.2 to connect to a Advantage Data Server to
push data from a SQL table into this server. I can view the data from
the ADS with DTS and I can insert data by using "Insert into TempTable ("Last
Name","First Name") values ('test','test)" from a Execute SQL Statement. The issue is when I build
up a DTS package to pull from SQL into the Advantage ODBC, I get a
"missing closing ")"" error. I have narrowed it down to the column
names in the destination table having spaces (Last Name, First Name,
and a bunch of others. DBA 101 here). How do I beat this?

I have tried editing the destination column names in disconnected edit
by adding the double quotes but get a "Column Name '"Last Name"' not
found" error. Wrapping them with [] doesn't work. I think this is a
limit on Advantage.

When I try to use Advantage OLE DB, I get an 'Ace32.dll must be newer
then the other dll" error. I am afraid of upgrading Ace32.dll and not
break other things.

So with this said my two questions:

How do I get the destniation column names wrapped in double quotes when using transformations?

or

Is there a way I can do an Insert into Advantage connection(column names) values (Select Values from SQL Server connection)?

Use square brackets ( [ ] ) , instead of double quotes.|||

I tried this in a sql query against the Advantage ODBC and it failed. I believe this is a limitation of the ODBC drivers for Advantage.

The issus that the column names are causing this to fail inside the DTS Transformations themselves. Anyone know where I can edit the Destination column names so that I can wrap them with quotes or brackets.

Thanks

Have you tried enclosing the column names in single quotes instead of Microsoft brackets?,

i.e. SELECT 'My Column' FROM MyTable

Yes tried single quotes.

If I try Insert into TableName ("Last Name") values ('Test') with the Advantage ODBC, it works. Issue is, I need to pull from SQL and push into Advantage. When I try with with transformations between the source and desitination, I get the missing closing ")" error.

So with this said my two questions:

How do I get the destniation column names wrapped in double quotes when using transformations?

Thanks for the help

This forum is for SSIS, not DTS.

You'll probably get better assistance on the DTS newsgroup.
