Cannot have two flat file destinations in a package (possible bug)?

During my development of a ssis package i've noticed that when creating two control flows that pulling data from seperate tables, each going to its own flat file, that the second keeps the attributes of the column names from the first. So when I create my second flat file, not only does it have the names of its correct columns but has the name of the the first flat file.

I'm hoping that I've explained the correctly. I'll provide more info "OR" I can provide the code to package if anyone would like.

You can only have one data flow per data flow task.|||You can have more than one Data Flow Task per package and multiple Data Connections. Try that way. Two Data Connections and two Data Flows Task.|||

Are you using the same Flat File Connection Manager for both Flat File Destinations? It sounds as though you are.
