Changing String text (Nvarchar) to number in a new columm, doesnt show the right value.

eed to convert a number which is a text format from SAP Hana to number based on Direct Query report.

 

I tried to add now column like this

Size = VALUE ('Data'[size].   Example:  Instead of showing 100 as text it shows i think Pbi sums of all 100 it founds.
