How can you sum comma separated numbers within a string?

I have a string field in my data base.  Examples are:
0;3;4;2;3;5;0
3;4;1;20;3;0;4

I want to create a field that shows the sum of this field.

Results:
17
35

Is there an easy way to do this?

Are there always 7 numbers?  If so it may be easy to break it down trimming to the commas in a formula.
