Anyone have a calculator to add text strings?

[John Uhden]

There's an ADDTEXT program in Cadlantic Utilities at the site below. 30-day
trial. It snags the first numeric characters in a selection set of TEXT
objects and spits out the total to the greatest precision encountered.

try this lisp that I wrote for my needs. It reads texts, takes the first
16 characters as digits, and totals them.
