Default extract and assign numerics to characters

Hi everyone,
I have a sheet that contains some products code but with no special
pattern,like the following:

DIJ
HEBGI
IGICD
BH
EFHJI
DHDFI

i want to assign these values, numbers from 0-9 as they are from from
A - J in a different column, i searched the newsgroups for help, i
understood that it would be something involving ROW(INDIRECT("1:"&LEN
(A2)) to be able to do what i am suppose to do in one cell so that DIJ
for instance takes the value of 389 so on so forth.
i tried with my limited knowledge to apply it, i was able to get the
first character only like D - 3 could you please help me on this task?
that i know what i am doing wrong or more generally how should this
task be approached, thanks a lot in advance
