No built-in Function, but you can build your own User Defined Function using
the info at:

http://support.microsoft.com/default...;EN-US;q213360

OR download Laurent Longre's MOREFUNC.XLL from he

http://longre.free.fr/english/index.html

With either these two Functions the setup would be....enter the number(456) in
A1. In B1 enter =FunctionName(A1)

The KB article names their Function SpellNumber

Laurent's is NUMTEXT

Correct Ron.

This file might be a help:
http://www.bygsoftware.com/examples/...s/num2wrds.zip

It's in the "Accountants" section on page:
http://www.bygsoftware.com/examples/examples.htm
It contains two methods to convert numbers to words and two cheque writing
routines.

The code is open and commented.
