Convert figures to Words in Indian Format

  Asked By: Erica    Date: Sep 08    Category: MS Office    Views: 1286
  

In India we use the following format to display currency:



1,00,000 -- Known as One Lakh instead of One Hundred Thousand

10,00,000 -- Known as Ten Lakhs instead of One Million.

10,000,000 --Known as One Crore instead of One Billion



I have used the following code and need help to display the value as shown

above.



Any help, suggestions or another code to suit my requirement would be

greatly appreciated

Replace your main function with this one:

Function SpellNumberLak(ByVal MyNumber)
Dim Dollars, Cents, Temp
Dim DecimalPlace, Count
ReDim Place(9) As String
Place(2) = " Thousand "
Place(3) = " Lak "
Place(4) = " Crore "
' 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
Temp = GetHundreds(Right(MyNumber, 3))
If Temp <> "" Then Dollars = Temp & Place(Count) & Dollars
If Len(MyNumber) > 3 Then
MyNumber = Left(MyNumber, Len(MyNumber) - 3)
Else
MyNumber = ""
End If
Count = 2
Do While MyNumber <> ""
Temp = GetHundreds(Right(MyNumber, 2))
If Temp <> "" Then Dollars = Temp & Place(Count) & Dollars
If Len(MyNumber) > 2 Then
MyNumber = Left(MyNumber, Len(MyNumber) - 2)
Else
MyNumber = ""
End If
Count = Count + 1
Loop
Select Case Dollars
Case ""
Dollars = "No Dollars"
Case "One"
Dollars = "One Dollar"
Case Else
Dollars = Dollars & " Dollars"
End Select
Select Case Cents
Case ""
Cents = " and No Cents"
Case "One"
Cents = " and One Cent"
Case Else
Cents = " and " & Cents & " Cents"
End Select
SpellNumberLak = Dollars & Cents
End Function


Note that this only works up to 99 Crore. You don't say what happens
above this.

How does it not work? Do you get an error? Do you get the wrong
results?

We're glad to help you out, but we need more information than "it
doesn't work".
