PASW Modeler 13_ Filler node issue

[Ika123]

Does anybody know how to transform multiple variables using the Filler mode  in SPSS modeler? It allows me to transform only one variable at a time...so it takes multiple nodes and a lot of time. The dialogue box allows you to select multiple variables, so I tried using "AND" which produced the following CLEM code:
to_integer('variable1') and to_integer('variable2')
But, then I get an error message: "Error: Failed to type application of operator: and(LONG,LONG)"
I'm thinking there must be a better way...
Any ideas?

I think you want to use a Derive node here:
  > Select Multiple as the mode
  > Choose variable1 and variable2 as the variables you want to derive from
  > Type to_integer(@FIELD) as the formula

Alex,

Thanks! I tried it with the filler node; and it works too.
