Hi all,
the "spell" function works great, the only problem is , it doesn't fully resolve my problem. For the document i need to send to bank. I have few problems that i need to modify the code: As below
e.g.
1. Usd 45612.00 . I need it to covert for me to " us dollars: Fourty five thousand six hundred twelve only (not "0 cent")
but spell function will convert to " fourty five thousand six hundred twelve dollars and 0 cent" i need "0 cent" to be "only", i need to remove "dollar" out from text, because i already have " us dollars" up front.
2. Usd 45312.13. I need it to covert to " fourty five thousand six hundred twelve and 13/100"

many thx for every replied in adance.
Kevin
 

Excel Facts

What is the shortcut key for Format Selection?
Ctrl+1 (the number one) will open the Format dialog for whatever is selected.
Presumably the "spell" function is a UDF.
Post the code.

Try this :

' String representation of amount.
MyNumber = Trim(Str(MyNumber))
' Position of decimal place 0 if none.
DecimalPlace = InStr(MyNumber, ".")
' Convert cents and set MyNumber to dollar amount.
If DecimalPlace > 0 Then
    Cents = Format(Round(MyNumber - Int(MyNumber), 2) * 100, "0")
    MyNumber = Trim(Left(MyNumber, DecimalPlace - 1))
End If
Count = 1
Do While MyNumber <> ""
    Temp = GetHundreds(Right(MyNumber, 3))

thank you so much for your assist. It's so great, you have my problems 99% solved. But will it be possible to take the word "dollars" out.
E.g.
The code you provided me, if i typed 12345.00 it will convert to " twelve thousand three hundred fourty five "dollars" only
but what i really need is "twelve thousand three hundred fourty five only" becuase i already have "us dollar:" up front

if i typed 1234.50 it will convert to " one thousand two hundred thirty four dollar and 50/100"
but what i really need is " one thousand two hundred thirty four and 50/100"

thank you so much for your kind assists.
