2. Click Insert Function on the Standard toolbar.
3. Under Or select a category, click User Defined.
4. In the Select a function list, click SpellNumber, and then click OK.
5. Enter the number or cell reference that you want, and then click OK.
But problem is in the select a function list under User Defined category,

Yes, I have been go through the earlier stage of the instruction (Method 1,2,
& 3), I have applied Method 1 & 2 but no result, & 3 I just tried to Insert
function, because I have not been using Excel 2000 or Excel 2002. So what's
wrong with me.

Read it again, please. Method 1, Method 2, and Method 3 are the 3 suggested
alternatives of ways of *using* the UDF.
Before you do that you need to go through the stage of *creating* the UDF.
That part is headed "How to create the sample function Called SpellNumber".

Sorry Sir, I'm unlucky to take your suggetion. Because I'm unable to
understand the 3rd method. I can't find any option to create user define
function. Kindly tell me clearly or describly.

If you do not understand English then you may be better using a newsgroup in
your own language.

On the page to which I referred you
(http://support.microsoft.com/kb/213360), there is a section entitled:
"How to create the sample function Called SpellNumber"

It says:
"How to create the sample function Called SpellNumber
1.Start Microsoft Excel.
2.Press ALT+F11 to start the Visual Basic Editor.
3.On the Insert menu, click Module.
4.Type the following code into the module sheet.
Option Explicit
'Main Function
Function SpellNumber(ByVal MyNumber)
Dim Dollars, Cents, Temp
Dim DecimalPlace, Count
ReDim Place(9) As String
Place(2) = " Thousand "
Place(3) = " Million "

Place(5) = " Trillion "
' 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 = GetTens(Left(Mid(MyNumber, DecimalPlace + 1) & _
"00", 2))
MyNumber = Trim(Left(MyNumber, DecimalPlace - 1))
End If
Count = 1
Do While MyNumber <> ""
Temp = GetHundreds(Right(MyNumber, 3))

Case 9: GetDigit = "Nine"
Case Else: GetDigit = ""

You need to do that to create your UDF before you can use it.

Thank you for suggestion, but problem is that I don't use to macro. Because I
don't know VB. I just want to creat in Excel 2003. If I open VB Edition (Alt
+ f11) & copy total code which you have suggested. It only can be use one PC.
But if can creat in excel 2003 then I can use it any PC. Is there any
solution to create UDF.
