Need to convert something like: 4 Days 16 Hours 32 Minutes to something that can be added up or manipulated. Minutes is fine.
 

Excel Facts

Quick Sum
Select a range of cells. The total appears in bottom right of Excel screen. Right-click total to add Max, Min, Count, Average.
It is hard to know how representative your example is from just one example value, but if you always spell out the text part (for example, "Minute" or "Minutes" instead of "Min" or "Mins"), then this UDF should work...
Code:
[table="width: 500"]
[tr]
	[td]Function DHM2M(S As String) As Long
  DHM2M = Evaluate(Replace(Replace(Replace(Replace(S, "s", "", , , vbTextCompare), "Day", "*1440+", , , vbTextCompare), "Hour", "*60+"), "Minute", "+") & "0")
End Function[/td]
[/tr]
[/table]

HOW TO INSTALL UDFs
------------------------------------
If you are new to UDFs, they are easy to install and use. To install it, simply press ALT+F11 to go into the VB editor and, once there, click Insert/Module on its menu bar, then copy/paste the above code into the code window that just opened up. That's it.... you are done. You can now use DHM2M just like it was a built-in Excel function. For example,

=DHM2M(A1)

If you are using XL2007 or above, make sure you save your file as an "Excel Macro-Enabled Workbook (*.xlsm) and answer the "do you want to enable macros" question as "yes" or "OK" (depending on the button label for your version of Excel) the next time you open your workbook.
