Assumming your value is in cell A4 use this formula.

=DOLLARTEXT(A4)

Shahid,

I had same question in this newsgroup and Mr. Paul B had replied me which I
am forwarding to you as it is. it works fine.


have a look here

To put in this function, from your workbook right-click the workbook's icon
and pick View Code. This icon is to the left of the "File" menu this will
open the VBA editor, in the left hand window click on your workbook name, go
to insert, module, and paste the code in the window that opens on the right
hand side, press Alt and Q to close this window and go back to your
workbook. If you are using excel 2000 or newer you may have to change the
macro security settings to get the macro to run.



then use something like this in a cell



=ConvertCurrencyToEnglish(5.25)

or

=ConvertCurrencyToEnglish(A4)

The previous post does (=DOLLARTEXT(A4))
work but apparently it is not part of excel. It is a user defined function
that I have as part of an add in called PUP (Power Utility Pack).

Sorry for the mistake.

Hi

Enter the following macro:-

Option Explicit
'****************' Main Function *'****************
Function SpellNumber(ByVal MyNumber, Optional IncludePence As Boolean = True)
Dim Pounds, Pence, Temp
Dim DecimalPlace, Count
ReDim Place(9) As String
Place(2) = " Thousand "
Place(3) = " Million "
Place(4) = " Billion "
Place(5) = " Trillion " ' String representation of amount
MyNumber = Trim(Str(MyNumber)) ' Position of decimal place 0 if none
DecimalPlace = InStr(MyNumber, ".")
'Convert Pence and set MyNumber to Pound amount
If DecimalPlace > 0 Then
Pence = GetTens(Left(Mid(MyNumber, DecimalPlace + 1) & "00", 2))
MyNumber = Trim(Left(MyNumber, DecimalPlace - 1))
End If
Count = 1
Do While MyNumber <> ""
Temp = GetHundreds(Right(MyNumber, 3))
If Temp <> "" Then Pounds = Temp & Place(Count) & Pounds
If Len(MyNumber) > 3 Then
MyNumber = Left(MyNumber, Len(MyNumber) - 3)
Else
MyNumber = ""
End If
Count = Count + 1
Loop
Select Case Pounds
Case ""
Pounds = "No Pounds"
Case "One"
Pounds = "One Pounds"
Case Else
Pounds = Pounds & " Pounds"
End Select

If IncludePence = False Then
Pence = ""
Else
Select Case Pence
Case ""
Pence = " and No Pence"
Case "One"
Pence = " and One Pence"
Case Else
Pence = " and " & Pence & " Pence"
End Select
End If

SpellNumber = Pounds & Pence
End Function
I have input the following formula in order to convert numbers into words.
the problem is i am working form three work sheets and the formula works
fine for the first two however in the last worksheet i do not want to
transfer pence over, how can i get round this if a need pence in the first
and second sheet but not on the third. see below for macro.

Sub bb()

End Sub
