Hi,

Kindly note that to prepare excel invoices daily. I have to write the total
amount of invoice both in figures and words, right now i m manually writing
the amount in words. Is there any formula to convert the figures to words?

I had also used the command i.e. spellnumber(..) but getting the message
#NAME?, Please guide and help on the above.

Lot of thanks in advance.

Thanks & Regards

Hello,

I suggest to take my user-defined-function spellnumber:
http://www.sulprobil.com/html/spellnumber.html

It's being used in banks but read my disclaimer, please.

You have to insert this function into a macro module: press ALT + F9,
insert module, copy text into module and get back to your worksheet.

And if you get other suggestions, I strongly recommend to test all of
them with test values given on my homepage and compare.

Regards,
Bernd

With Spellnumber you have to create a VBA function called Spellnumber.

See http://www.xldynamic.com/source/xld.xlFAQ0004.html.

If you are in India, you might want this which handles the Indain number
format

Dear Sir,

First of all Thanks for giving your valuable guidelines for the above but I
am still facing the problem. Can you send me some file by incorporating this
formula. I will be very thankful, if you send me such file.

Thanks & Regards

Dear Sir,

I am still facing the problem. Can you send me some file in which this
formula is used and also guide me how i can incorporate this in my worksheet
because as advised by you, I had tried by pussing ALT + F9 but nothing is
appearing.

Your early reply will be highly appreciated and hope will help me a lot

Thanks & Regards

Hello,

Press ALT + F11 (not F9), then insert module, copy my function text
into that module, go back to worksheet and enter into a cell
=spellnumer(23.45)
or
=spellnumber(A1)
and into cell A1
23.45
and so on.

Bernd

Dear Sir,

As advised by you, Today I had tried to do it and after opening the
worksheet, press ALT + F11 then a menu appear called Microsoft Visual Basic -
MANUAL INVOICING - 3100001.XLS [design] - [ Module3(Code)] and copied the
content on module 3 as mentioned in your mail and tried to activate the
formula but it is not working.

Please advise or send me some file in which the same was used.

Please help me sir.

Thanks & Regards
