Default Is there a function to change a number to text?


I am trying to find a function that will convert numbers to text. For
example: the function will convert $567.87 to Five Hundred Sixty Seven
and 87/100's. Anybody know how to do this?

Good evening psdunlavy

There seems to be quite a demand for this type of function, although
Excel doesn't actually do it as a native function. Some add-ins are
available that once installed will do this (amongst other things) - to
receive my add-in (free to anyone who e-mails me), with instructions on
how to use the function, please send an e-mail to
.

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 the "SPELLNUMBER" function, which can be used in your
spreadsheets, two methods to convert numbers to words and two cheque
writing routines.

The code is open and commented.
