title: Convert label text to decimal
body: <p>I was wondering if you can convert a label to a decimal.  I know this can be done with a textbox, but i'm trying to see if it will work with a label.  Here is the code, I'm getting error input message.  </p>
  
  <pre><code>Label sitL = ((Label)FormView2.FindControl("SitUpsLabel"));
  Label pushL = ((Label)FormView2.FindControl("pushUpsLabel"));
  int count = 0;
  int counter2 = 0;
  decimal val = Decimal.Parse(sitL.Text);
  decimal val2 = Decimal.Parse(pushL.Text);
  </code></pre>
