Excel Facts

Who is Mr Spreadsheet?
Author John Walkenbach was Mr Spreadsheet until his retirement in June 2019.
and how will if there is some decimal value.

E.g 12345 - twelve thousand three hundred and forty five.
solution (if no decimal point) -Twelve Thousand Three Hundred Forty Five Dollars and No Cents. (can this will be OK).
solution (if decimal point)- Twelve Thousand Three Hundred Forty Five Dollars and Fifty Cents

Please let me know if this is not OK, how you want the result for decimal point.
