I am sorry. Its still not clear :confused:

All that I understand is
1) Simple Sum of numbers from 1 to 9.
2) All numbers should be used.
3) All numbers should appear only once.

I think there is more to it. :confused:

If there is nothing more to it, then the answer is
1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+9=45. :p

Simple sum, all numbers used and used only once. :D

In your sum the number 4 and 5 are used twice....

Result part number also unique..
