Since the Excel file is the destination, it needs to exist before you run the package. You can store a template Excel file somewhere and use a File System Task to copy it to the correct destination folder. Use an expression to change the name of the Excel file. An example: http://neonlabs.structum.net/blog/ssis-how-to-add-a-timestamp-to-a-excel-file-output-path/ Don't forget to set DelayValidation to true for the dataflow.MCTS, MCITP - Please mark posts as answered where appropriate.

1 - Create 2 variables to store the File Name and File Path and assign them some proper values. 2 - Create the Excel File Connection 2 - Create a Script Task and within it set the file name by appending it with date and add code to assign this path to Excel File connection e.g. string fileName = (string)Dts.Variables["FileName"].Value; string filePath = (string)Dts.Variables["FilePath"].Value; string dateString = string.Format("_{0:yyyyMMdd_HHmmss}", DateTime.Now); string fullFilePath = string.Format("{0}{1}{2}.csv", (!filePath.EndsWith("\\") ? filePath + "\\" : filePath), fileName, dateString); Dts.Connections["xsl.fileExport"].ConnectionString = fullFilePath; Hope this helps- Please mark the post as answered if it answers your question

The code that I shared is supposed to be used in "Script Task" not in the variable expression editor. Follow my earlier post as shared below to create the Script task based on your requirements: http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/sqlintegrationservices/thread/6623c7da-5e6c-4fa9-b73a-713a1830c464Please mark the post as answered if it answers your question

As I see now you have used the Koen Verbeeck. In that case problem is with your copy paste. You are using wrong qoutation characters. Please change the qoutations from to " before using the code.Please mark the post as answered if it answers your question
