SpellNumber Function In Excel
- Thread starter Madilla
- Start date
So just have something like this:
Option Explicit
'Main Function
Function SpellNumber(ByVal MyNumber)
Dim PreDecimal, PostDecimal, 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 PostDecimal and set MyNumber to dollar amount.
If DecimalPlace > 0 Then
PostDecimal = 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 PreDecimal = Temp & Place(Count) & PreDecimal
If Len(MyNumber) > 3 Then
MyNumber = Left(MyNumber, Len(MyNumber) - 3)
Else
MyNumber = ""
End If
Count = Count + 1
Loop
SpellNumber = PreDecimal & " " & PostDecimal
End Function
' Converts a number from 100-999 into text
Function GetHundreds(ByVal MyNumber)
Dim Result As String
If Val(MyNumber) = 0 Then Exit Function
MyNumber = Right("000" & MyNumber, 3)
' Convert the hundreds place.

Result = GetDigit(Mid(MyNumber, 1, 1)) & " Hundred "
End If
' Convert the tens and ones place.
If Mid(MyNumber, 2, 1) <> "0" Then
Result = Result & GetTens(Mid(MyNumber, 2))
Else
Result = Result & GetDigit(Mid(MyNumber, 3))
End If
GetHundreds = Result
End Function

Change all references to "dollars" to ""?
or
Public Function NumberToText(lNumber as long) as string
Select Case lNumber
Case 1: NumberToText = "One": Exit Function
Case 2: NumberToText = "Two": Exit Function
Case 3: NumberToText = "Three": Exit Function
...etc....
Case 22: NumberToText = "Twenty Two": Exit Function
...etc...
End Select
End Function
(That's a joke BTW

Ahh.....the old one's are the best - you can't beat a good VB joke

You guys...
Madilla, I usually just select all the affected cells and from the Format/Cells options I choose the 'text' category. This means that e.g. numbers beginning or ending with a zero are displayed exactly as entered. Is that what you're after?

Not really.
She wants a tool, similiar to the SpellNumber tool linked above, that will convert numbers (3, 5, etc.) to text (three, five, etc.) but without the "dollar" or "euro" formatting (just plain whole numbers) of the tool linked above.
On first glancing through the thread I assumed such a tool would easily be found through google, given a few of the manual solutions provided above I'm guessing it might not be so readily available.
