Stop CSV Reader from column type auto detection

Dear KNIME community,

I’m in a little trouble with the CSV reader.

I have a perfectly functioning workflow which I update monthly. Now I overwrote the input files (csv, exact same thing as last month just a couple of additional rows), and the CSV reader shows a couple of errors that I guess are related to the fact that it tries to autodetect the column type again.

Is there some way I can stop KNIME from doing that? I want it to be strings in the beginning and then change the type after replacing some strings and doing other transformations later.

Thanks in advance!
