Hi @traceystone 

 

I have removed the rows with - to empty and it avoid the warning message.

throw it in a multi-field formula. Select the field you want to convert...

 

if isnumber([_CurrentField_]) then tonumber([_CurrentField_]) else null() endif

 

unclick the new column option - and change it to fixed decimal. both "" and "-" are strings. use 0 or null() for empty numeric fields.
