ToNumber(Left([Range], 4)) not working

I am trying to convert a V_WString to a number. The formula is as follows: ToNumber(Left([Range], 4)). See also the workflow attached. The metadata stays the same. Why does it not work?

There is no whitespace nor commas or anything else. It does work with the Select tool.

Hello @arno_bürgin ,

You have to change the data type. Once done it will work. :)
