Default Text to Numbers

Hi everyone. I have a column of data imported into excel that has
text and numbers. Such as 3 hours, 57 minutes, 43 seconds. It might
also just have 39 seconds or 1 day, 4 hours, 45 minutes. It would
look like this:

A1
3 hours, 57 minutes, 43 seconds
39 seconds
1 day, 4 hours, 45 minutes


I need to take this column and convert each entry to seconds. f
anyone can think of a way to do this it would be greatly appreciated.
