You're really starting to hate SSIS aren't you?
Don't worry, I feel ya. I felt exactly the same way when I was tinkering with SSIS (and not getting the results I really wanted) a few months ago. Plus there's this nagging feeling that it would be immensely easier to type out the code than wire out properties and expressions.
I felt exactly the same way as you, but you can't do much about it.
Did you ever use Microsoft Biztalk Server? Much of the programming for Biztalk Server is done through designers. Some things can be done in code, for example transformations. Orchestrations on the other hand can't (as far as I know).

I was only kidding about you fancying Drag and Drop GUI…
Nevertheless, I have been interviewing for the past few weeks now, one guy had all the right acronyms in his resume so he was invited for an interview…
I asked him the following question, him being a well respected web developer in his own mind should not find this one difficult.
The question was: I have <asp:TextBox> tag in my web page, the client will see a nice box where he can enter text… amazing… what is written in the HTML?
Suddenly it became very quite… and that was the first question.
The average guy doesn’t want to even begin to understand how things work, he is well content with dragging and dropping controls till his hands grow tired.
The moral is: Find me a code kind of guy, or even one that wants to be a code kind of guy, and I’ll hire him.
Hey - I'll hire him first.
Really.
People just can't write a simple c# hello world in notepad these days.
Believe me, I ask them to.
