Rockitman,
Either the Transform Data task or the Bulk Insert task will probably do, but read about them first to determine which to choose.

Aha, I got it. I had to change the drive mapping from the K: mapping (which
is really the local D: drive of the server), changed it to D: and it works!!
Now, the FTP is just the first part of this package I wish to accomplish.
The FTP downloads a flat file into a directory where there is an Access
database. I need to import the file into a table in the database. I cannot
figure out which Task to use in the local package creation. Can you point me
to the right one?

Rockitman,
It depends on how your server has been set up, but the local administrator
group does not need to be, and on my servers is not, a SQL Server sysadmin.
(That group actually has no SQL Server rights.)
Therefore, it is not obvious to me which account you are running under
because I don't know if you are a sysadmin. In a query window run the
following. If it returns 1 you are a system administrator.
SELECT IS_Srvrolemember('sysadmin')
The rights you need to check are not SQL Server rights, but rights to the
directory path you are trying to access. This is a domain rights issue, so
it will not be listed in the SQL Server security tables.
Go to the directory in question and look at its security membership. Browse
to the directory using Explorer, right click on the folder and choose
Properties, choose the Security tab. If the answer is not obvious, talk to
your domain administrators to get their help.
