I'm having difficulty finding a function to count a series of numbers in a

Heres an example of the data, 1+10+4+5+15+1

So the total should be 36 but since the user writes this info in one cell,
and 'sum of that cell' doesn't seem to work, is there something function
wise, simple that I'm missing?

Thanks

You could select the cell, then put an = or + sign in front of the 1 (on the
formula bar).

Or you could use a VBA function or macro to evaluate the contents.
