Excel NumToWords Formula

To revel my 20th week as a member of this EXCELlent Community, I hereby share my NumToWords formula. Delve into it in the attached file and please apprise me of your thoughts thereon.

  • Jay8642, your request is my command! Note that I simply edited the formulas for these defined names: 

    1. CurName

    =IF(INT(IntNum)=0,"","Pound"&LEFT("s",INT(IntNum)>1))

     

    2. DecName

    ="Pen"&IF(SIGN(DecNum-1),"ce","ny")

     

    Finally, I renamed NumToDollars as NumToPounds. To satisfy your curiosity on the process of constructing the formula, you can read my articles on NumToWords and NumToDollars. The snapshot below illustrates the use of the NumToPounds formula: 

    The Excel file containing the NumToPounds formula is hereto attached for the benefit of those who may be interested in testing its usage.

      Thanks for your compliment. Incidentally, you need not copy the workbook. You only have to copy the formula to any cell other than those in Column A and it will convert the number to its left to words. 

      Thereafter, you can convert any number in the same workbook by entering this formula in the cell to its right: 

      =NumToWords

        Hi Twifoo Twifoo, not sure if i am entering the correct formula. I pasted the NumtoWords formula from your sheet then put a number eg. 345 but it did nothing. I would appreciate if you guide me how to use it. 

         

        Thank you in advance!
