Just a suggestion

U may have Excel Connection, if not have a connection to that file (Get from DTS Design)
Get a "Execute SQL Task" in DTS design
and use the SQL statement
Drop table [Sheet1$]

Something, which I noticed here is, after deleting, the Excel file becomes larger than that with data (atleast in my case)
