Supposing you have a lot of price amount numbers, and now you need to convert or spell out them to text strings. For example, convert 123.55 to the English words one hundred twenty-three dollars and fifty five cents. In Excel there are no effective facility to solve this problem but using the long and complex VBA code. In this article, I will introduce you some methods to deal with it.
Spell Out Or Convert Numbers To English Words With VBA Code
The following long VBA code can help you to spell out numbers to text strings. Do as follows:
1. Hold down the ALT + F11 keys, and it opens the Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications window.
2. Click Insert > Module, and paste the following macro in the Modulewindow.
Function SpellNumberToEnglish(ByVal pNumber)
'Updateby20131113
Dim Rupees, paise
arr = Array("", "", " Thousand ", " Million ", " Billion ", " Trillion ")
pNumber = Trim(Str(pNumber))
xDecimal = InStr(pNumber, ".")
If xDecimal > 0 Then
paise = GetTens(Left(Mid(pNumber, xDecimal + 1) & "00", 2))
pNumber = Trim(Left(pNumber, xDecimal - 1))
End If
xIndex = 1
Do While pNumber <> ""
xHundred = ""
xValue = Right(pNumber, 3)
If Val(xValue) <> 0 Then
xValue = Right("000" & xValue, 3)
If Mid(xValue, 1, 1) <> "0" Then
xHundred = GetDigit(Mid(xValue, 1, 1)) & " Hundred "
End If
If Mid(xValue, 2, 1) <> "0" Then
xHundred = xHundred & GetTens(Mid(xValue, 2))
Else
xHundred = xHundred & GetDigit(Mid(xValue, 3))
End If
End If
If xHundred <> "" Then
Rupees = xHundred & arr(xIndex) & Rupees
End If
If Len(pNumber) > 3 Then
pNumber = Left(pNumber, Len(pNumber) - 3)
Else
pNumber = ""
End If
xIndex = xIndex + 1
Loop
Select Case Rupees
Case ""
Rupees = "No Rupees"
Case "One"
Rupees = "One Dollar"
Case Else
Rupees = Rupees & " Rupees"
End Select
Select Case paise
Case ""
paise = " and No paise"
Case "One"
paise = " and One paise"
Case Else
paise = " and " & paise & " paise"
End Select
SpellNumberToEnglish = Rupees & paise
End Function
Function GetTens(pTens)
Dim Result As String
Result = ""
If Val(Left(pTens, 1)) = 1 Then
Select Case Val(pTens)
Case 10: Result = "Ten"
Case 11: Result = "Eleven"
Case 12: Result = "Twelve"
Case 13: Result = "Thirteen"
Case 14: Result = "Fourteen"
Case 15: Result = "Fifteen"
Case 16: Result = "Sixteen"
Case 17: Result = "Seventeen"
Case 18: Result = "Eighteen"
Case 19: Result = "Nineteen"
Case Else
End Select
Else
Select Case Val(Left(pTens, 1))
Case 2: Result = "Twenty "
Case 3: Result = "Thirty "
Case 4: Result = "Forty "
Case 5: Result = "Fifty "
Case 6: Result = "Sixty "
Case 7: Result = "Seventy "
Case 8: Result = "Eighty "
Case 9: Result = "Ninety "
Case Else
End Select
Result = Result & GetDigit(Right(pTens, 1))
End If
GetTens = Result
End Function
Function GetDigit(pDigit)
Select Case Val(pDigit)
Case 1: GetDigit = "One"
Case 2: GetDigit = "Two"
Case 3: GetDigit = "Three"
Case 4: GetDigit = "Four"
Case 5: GetDigit = "Five"
Case 6: GetDigit = "Six"
Case 7: GetDigit = "Seven"
Case 8: GetDigit = "Eight"
Case 9: GetDigit = "Nine"
Case Else: GetDigit = ""
End Select
End Function
3. Then save the code, and return to the worksheet, in the adjacent cell C2, enter the formula =SpellNumberToEnglish(A2), see screenshot:
4. Then press Enter key, and select the cell C2, then drag the fill handle over to the range that contains this formula as you need. And all of the numbers have been spelt out to English words. See screenshot:
Note: As they are formulas, when you need to copy and paste them, please paste as values.
