Buffer Exception

When running a package created on my local machine i get no errors at all but when i try to run the same package on the server i get an error specifying Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Pipeline.DoesNotFitBufferException: The value is too large to fit in the column data area of the buffer.

I have tried changing the defaultbuffersize of the data flow task but this makes no difference. I think that a buffer size for a particular column is being exceed but i cannot find anywhere to set this property.

Has anyone else struck this error?

What key things are different between your local development box and your server? Different locale settings, 32 to 64 bit perhaps?
