DTS Error

I need to export some table data to Excel which I normally do with Query Analyzer as a .CSV file. However, one of the fields has a ton of comma's which screws up the formatting so I'm using the DTS Import/Export Wizard. I choose the .xls file and paste my query. When it runs I get the following error: "Failed to copy 1 table(s). Double click the error..." When I click on the error it gives me an "Invalid Pointer" message. I'm not sure where to go from here so any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Jim
I figured it out...I had "USE (Name of Database)" in my query. Once I took that line out everything worked quite well.
