Destring - all numeric digits, not scientific expression

[Christos Mavrovitis]

Hello everyone,
I have the following Stata code:

input str16 x1
123456789
end
destring x1, gen(x2)
sum x2

The output is

   Variable |        Obs        Mean    Std. Dev.       Min        Max
-------------+---------------------------------------------------------
          x2 |          1    1.23e+08           .   1.23e+08   1.23e+08

How can I tweak this code, so I can get the full 9-digit number, and not its scientific expression?

Thank you for your time
