Default using gui controls


If say "ABE" is entered in the designated cell then is the result...
125 or 8 (sum) or 10 (product)?
How would this meaningful to school kids?

I want to produce a simple application for my kids primary school using Excel
2003.
The worksheet will have the alphabet listed and underneath each letter there
will be a corresponding value (ie a =1 through to z =26). The kids will then
write a name (or other single word) in a cell and the relevant letters would
be choosen in the alphabet table and its calculated 'value' output into
another cell.

Thanks for any help
