Need number in Excel converted to spelled out text

T

Terry

How do I have Excel look at a number in one cell and type out the text
representing the number in another cell. I need to use the XL sheet in a
mail merge and the number needs to be displayed both numberically and as text.

If you want an addin that provides a worksheet function that does this,
download Laurent Longre's free morefunc.xll addin found
here:

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

It is downloaded in a zip file which also contains an informative file in
'hlp' format that describes the 33 or so very useful
functions included, one of which does the number to words conversion you
describe (supports various languages and currencies).

See also Laurent's latest version that is multi-lingual.

This file might be a help:
http://www.bygsoftware.com/examples/zipfiles/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 check writing
routines.

The code is open and commented.
