I have tried everything to red rid of this error. I cannot do it.
 
The funny thing is that it isn't actually causing any problems. Everything seems to be working normally. But the error is so annoying!
 
Any ideas?

    I am unable to read what you have, however, what Text are you reading, the Selected value from the Row they pick? But in the cases where nothing is picked there is no text value so its essentially an empty string.
     
    So can you please put a clear picture up and also, remove all of them but 1. When you are debugging something there is no reason to try to debug your entire massive + statement. 
     
    Just put one .text value and try to convert it. If it gives you an error, I want you to highlight the expression control.text, it will then give you a dynamic statement of what data type it is. I mean you could do that to your big statement 1 by 1 and see what they are.
    If you see things like null/blank/empty that is the issue as its a string not a number so.. thats why its doing it.
