Row generator

In my row generator, I have imported two columns, they are
name & age.

I have declared the datatype for name as varchar
But for age, i want to declare the datatype as integer
Row generator doesn't allow the integer datatype. It accepts
only the varchar. How to make the datatype conversion in row generator.

Row generator does allow the integer data type. Can u explain the problem clearly? Also, u cannot do datatype conversion in row generator.

Please explain why you believe this to be the case.
I use integers a lot in Row Generator stages.
