Convert Numerals to Words

Is there any formula that i can use in a word document that would
automatically convert a number to its corresponding value in "words" ??

Hi,

The QUOTE field with the \*CardText switch does this. For example, to
convert the number 1234 to words, insert a field, select QUOTE, and enter the
following code:
QUOTE \*CartText "1234"

supposing the text is:

The customer Mr A has paid an amount of USD 100 (USD One Hundred Only) today.

Hi Fuzzy,

Press Ctrl-F9 to create a pair of field braces (ie '{}')
Between the field braces, type '=1234 \* CardText' so that you end up with {=1234 \* CardText }
Select the field and press F9.

The output will be in lower case. You can change the case by adding another switch, eg:
{=1234 \* CardText \* Upper} - upper case
{=1234 \* CardText \* Caps} - title case
{=1234 \* CardText \* FirstCap} - sentence case

ok sorry - one more doubt....

if i have a decimal number, how can i get the numbers after the decimal also
to get converted into text?

instead of cardtext, i tried dollar text and it read the number as 45/100
instead of and forty five

this formula does not work for numbers greater than 999,999
why is that?
