Default Simple VBA Accumulator (Function?)

I'm not sure what you are really looking for, but perhaps the
following might get you started:

Function AddThemUp(ParamArray Args() As Variant) As Double
Dim N As Long
Dim L As Long
For N = LBound(Args) To UBound(Args)
If IsNumeric(Args(N)) = True Then
L = L + Args(N)
End If
Next N
AddThemUp = L
End Function


This function takes any number of input parameters and returns the sum
of those parameters. E.g,.,

Dim X As Long
X = AddThemUp(10,20,30)
Debug.Print X

Can a function get repeated values, add them, and return a total to
the calling procedure?
I need to reuse this code with differing numbers of items.

Example

Pass these parameters

add_to(1)
add_to(2)

Get the returned total from function

function accum(number)
total = total + number

RETURN TOTAL to Procedure
