    Thumbs up Convert a Numeric value to Words Without Vba

    Note : It works for a value having two decimal places. It truncates if you have a value having more than two decimal places.
    Note : The following formula can convert amount one less than 1 trillion into words.

    For example : $ 1,250.50 = One Thousand Two Hundred Fifty Dollars and Fifty Cents

    $1,250.50 is placed in cell B5.

    Paste the following formula in cell C5.

    Re: Convert a Numeric value to Words Without Vba

    This is an awesome formula

    Heres my contribution to the great work,

    I have translated this into 2 more formats:

    Standard Mexico Spanish Lettering (including the billions/milliards correction for spanish)
    Standard Mexico Spanish Cheque formatting

    I hope they are usefull to someone else, took me 2 hours to troubleshoot all the minute text bugs and wording nuances when converting to spanish, so enjoy (god i hate my language lol)

    As a recomendation, use notepad or another text editor to replace N34 with the cell number you use on your sheet, theres lots of iterations in the formula, doing drag and drop on each one by hand will probably take a long time.

    Standard Mexico Spanish Lettering:

    $12,525,681.93
    Shows as:
    DOCE MILLON(ES), QUINIENTOS VEINTE Y CINCO MIL, SEISCIENTOS OCHENTA Y UN PESOS CON NOVENTA Y TRES CENTAVOS

    Standard Mexico Spanish Cheque formatting:

    Thank you for your swift response!

    For $1,250.51, with your above updated code, i got this:
    One Thousand Two Hundred Fifty Dollars and Fifty-One Only

    May I ask if you are able to churn out this instead?
    One Thousand Two Hundred Fifty and Cents Fifty-One Only

    The removal of word 'Dollars' and additional of Cents after the 'and' word
    Much warm thanks!

    Re: Convert a Numeric value to Words Without Vba

    Great Formula...
    But what is recommended?
    Using the VBA code conversion or using this formula in the cell, in terms of speed of the calculation.
    Especially if the formula is being used for 10 times or more in the same spreadsheet?

    Re: Convert a Numeric value to Words Without Vba

    Hi,
    I made a template about the subject before. I created a NumbertoText function in Module1(VBA Window).
    The function can be used on all sheets of the workbook.

    For example, enter "the number 50" into cell G1, and enter the following formula into another cell:
    =NumbertoText(G1)
    The result will be as this : Fifty Dollars and No Cents
