loosing values when load from text file

When loading a table in a data flow from a text file that contains non-null float values, I am seeing erratic and inconsistent results.  I am presently using SQL Server Destination in a data flow.

- With low volumnes of data, less that 50,000 rows, no problems

- But with higher volumnes, 2,000,000+ rows, I get different results depending on how I run the package.  If I run is directly (right-click and click on Execute), I get the expected result. 

But if I use SQL Server Agent to run the package, half of the values are lost and nulls are loaded instead.  I have inspected the into text file and there are few rows with null for the column.

Any help would be appreciated!

    Did you have success using both BIDS and SQL Agent for the 50K load

    While using SQL Agent did you chose the Command subsystem and use dtexec or the SSIS subsystem
