SPELL CURRENCY FUNCTION

[Rajesh]

Hi there,

I had been trying a while back to get hold of a function that would spell a
currency value in text and then i found the spellnumber function listed in
microsoft website (which i actually got from third party websites i am sorry
i dont remember the website)

then i had a necessity that i had to use dollar once and qatari riyal once.
so rather than changing the code for each currency, i deviced this function
which will return the desired currency denomination


this is for those who might find this useful

' Use SpellCurrency <currency amount > , <"currency denomination"> ,
<"currency subdenomination">
' SpellCurrency , a function that will take the required currency
denomination
' and required subdenomination

Function SpellCurrency(ByVal MyNumber, ByVal Denomination, ByVal
SubDenomination)
Dim Denom, SubDenom, 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 the number and set MyNumber to Currency amount.
If DecimalPlace > 0 Then
SubDenom = 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 Denom = temp & Place(Count) & Denom
If Len(MyNumber) > 3 Then
MyNumber = Left(MyNumber, Len(MyNumber) - 3)
