Converting Number Stored in a text format to a number format

[salmankojar]

i am working with a project which have a field containing item code such as '000000000000010000' in this text format and i am trying to convert this into number format using this statement 

NUM(NUM#("item code"))

But the above statement gives null values.it doesnt convert the field value.

i tried TRIM function also but it still remains the same.

i have attached an image of it for reference.

Please help me..

Thankyou.
