I am using SSIS packagees to load data into SQL Server tables. The data is first imported via SNA link on a pre configured HIS server. On the Host (mainframe) side all data is in flat file format with arabic/latin mixed columns. The problem is that after I execute my packages only the arabic data is all incorrect (garbage).

I am using code-page 1256 in OLE DB Destination connection properties for the packages. Any clue?

The dest columns are CHAR, and no collation is applied.
