=VALUE(A1) where A1 holds the text string that looks like a number (this is
an Excel 2003 function which I presume hasn't changed in Excel 2007)

Hi again, if you were wanting to do a type conversion in VBA, you might want
to use something like cInt(TextStringVariable) or cLng, CSng, or CDbl
depending on what the text string number looks like.

This doen't converts the number to words

Vineet, sorry, I read your posting the wrong way around. Try using the TEXT
function. For example TEXT(A1,"0") or TEXT(A1,"$0.00") if you want the
currency format (you can choose how you'd like to format the number).
