Download and install Longre's morefunc.xll from http://xcell05.free.fr/ and use
the NBTEXT function.

If you are using this for currency, you can specify the currency units of your
choice in function arguments. The function language arguments are:

. 0 or omitted = default (language of the current Windows version)
. 1 = German
. 2 = English
. 3 = Danish
. 4 = Spanish
. 5 = Esperanto
. 6 = French (standard)
. 7 = French (Belgian)
. 8 = French (Swiss)
. 9 = Italian
. 10 = Dutch
. 11 = Norwegian
. 12 = Portuguese
. 13 = Swedish

hi
sorry to bug u again ;)
the MS Script(2nd link) disables after re-launchign the sheet.
i mean 1st time when i add the modul it works perfictly and i di
replace the cent and dollar with my own currency(thanks for ur tip) bu
when i close the sheet and re open it i get the error sign on the cel
where ive seted the =spellnumber code, it gives me the #Name error o
the cell, just like when u put a wrong function.
then i must delete the modul and save the sheet without it and re ope
then re-enter the modul.
am i doing something wrong, and other link(Morefunc) works too but i
doesnt adds currecy in it.
EDIT:
I managed to work the MoreFunc with my own currency, but i couldnt se
the "after point" like Cents.
but my concern is that am trying to do this thing on my office pc an
my account is limited, i think i wont be able to install the MoreFun
on it so i need the MS script to work. if somebody can tell me why i
screws up on every re-luanch ill be greatfull

You should be able to.

Post a sample of the raw number and how you want it displayed, and I should be
able to give you the proper syntax.
