Default Changing text to number

If a letter is in A2, =CODE(A2)-64 will give 1, 2, 3, etc. from A, B, C,
etc.

It isn't clear how you have combined the results from ANY.XX to give 125.00,
as the letters A, N, Y, X, X respectively would be 1, 14, 25, 24, 24

The code is set up where a letter represents a number. For example: A=1,
B=2, C=3, and so on. How do I convert the text to its equilvilant number?
