    Is it an upgraded DTS package or a new one?
    What are steps involved in that package?

    It just import data and does not change any configuration.

    Strange, the error 0x80040E21 can happen if you use an OpenStatic ADODB.Recordset object to open Excel, or use an OpenKeyset recordset to perform paging,

    Within the import process if you are executing a stored procedure, make sure you do so through the connection.execute() method, rather than a command object, and add the following two lines of code to the beginning of your procedure:

    SET ANSI_NULLS OFF
    SET NOCOUNT ON

    Also ensure MDAC version matches on the client and server, as this can be a culprit in some ocassions.
