Yossi,
There are multiple ways.
-You could invoke default calculator with 'Activate window calculator' and get calculated value with _CalcValue
-Yopu could simply call an inputbox and ask for text. ie:

lcCalc = InputBox('Calculate','Enter your expression')
* User enters 44234+12542+6211
? iif(empty(lcCalc),0,Evaluate(lcCalc))

-Create a modal form that would get calculation similar to inputbox etc.
