    Formula for 8 + 8 = 7...

    I made this formula to add the digits of an integer:
    =SUM(--MID(<integer>,ROW(INDIRECT("1:"& LEN(<integer>))),1))

    You can copy it along a row or column to iterate.

    I'm afraid I'm not sure how to put that into one cell but this is a start.

    See http://www.mathpages.com/home/kmath020.htm and http://mathforum.org/k12/mathtips/mulliss.html

    This formula by Daddylonglegs:

    =A1 - FLOOR(A1 - 1, 9)

    Those pages made my brain sad. Isn't there a forum rule about inflicting that kind of thing on innocent forum users?

    Also, cool.

    or heres a udf i found that will take 66 in say a1 and return 3
    =digitalroot(a1)
    or if used like =DigitalRoot(SUBSTITUTE(A1,"+","")) it can do a whole string of single digit numbers in the form 6+5+7+2
