Default Excel formats

If you could leave the number as a NUMBER, instead of converting it to TEXT,
and forgo the cents to 00, then a custom format like this might do
it..........

# ### ##0",00 $"

The largest numbers would be up to 100,000,000 and the smallest could be
negatives in the thousands. These are values taken from calculations of
investments, so there are growth and loss numbers given.

Problem:
changing numeric values into text vales then adding a space into the text
cell, to take the place of the"," to denote thousands, move the "$" to the
end and change the "." to a comma, ex: $1,896,230.00 once changed to a text
value becomes "1896230.00", result I require is "1 896 230,00 $"

A number of Financial values across multiple spreadsheets require this type
of formatting. If this can be done as a macro or formula, that would be most
helpful.
