Excel 2000 Translating numbers to text 1

[Pappykahn]

Can I get Excel to take a number from one cell and translate that number to another cell, but in text form? Example $100.25 = One Hundred Dollars and 25/100

Hi Pappy, The following is a nice comprehensive answer compiled by Norman Harker in the MS groups.

You should try a Google search for questions as you might imagine that this
is a fairly common question.

See:

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.
