Default Calculate Formula

Hi all,

I need to create a simple calculater in Excel for kids. I can create forms
and add a box to enter the calculation. But how do i get Excel to evaluate
the contents of the box and show the answer?

I have a text box called box1 where the user enters the calc (1+2, 24/5 so on)
and then a label on the form called answer.
I thought that Answer=Box1 would work but it just give a duplicate of the
calc entered.

I know i should be able to do this but i just can't figure it.

All help is appreciated
