You should try a Google search for questions as you might imagine that this

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).

This file might be a help:

It's in the "Accountants" section on page:

It contains two methods to convert numbers to words and two check writing
routines.

The code is open and commented.
