Default calculate sum of highlighted cells in a column

What do you consider "highlighted"? Colored cells?

You would need to use VBA to SUM colored cells.

If the cells are colored due to Conditional Formatting you could SUM based upon
the CF criteria.

If you just want to get a SUM on the Status Bar try the following method if you
have Excel 2003 and all colored cells are same color...............

Select the column then EditFindFormatPattern. Select the pattern and OK.

In the Found Dialog hit SHIFT + DownArrow

On Status Bar see SUM = xxx
