Excel file import problem

GB
Hello:
I need to import an Excel file to SQL Server.
The .xls file has the column names which contains
dot inside, like AAA.BBB. When I import this file
in SQL using DTS Import/Export tool, it creates a table
with column names like AAA#BBB.
So, during import process the dots substitutes with #.
Could you, please, give me a hint how to fix the problem?

Thanks,
GB

Put [brackets] around the field names in Excel.
