Changing Data type of Excel Destination in SSIS

Hi,

I am creating excel file from table and sending it to client.

Till now , things were good but today when my client tried to do calculations on that excel , he failed. All the columns in excel were of text.here comes the problem.

table is Fishingreport   

Fish_Id Fish_Type FishSales FishQty

1          jelly         22.09$         2

12        jelly         33$              3

I have xlsx file , I have placed a sample Excel with only header names (Fish_Id (Numeric) Fish_Type(general) FishSales(Numeric) FishQty(int))

So what i am doing , first copying Sample excel to my destination folder by filesystem task (FishSales_2016-02-03) and then using this Excel in connection manager (expression). Everything is fine but all my excel columns are text. I have tried resetting excel external columns in Advanvce settings but it reset itself to unicode.

I have tried to googled it out but didnt get anything useful . Please can anyone help me if he has ever worked on same scenario?
