    SpellNumber

    I am trying to convert numbers to words. Excel help tells me:

    Use the SpellNumber function in individual cells

    Type the formula =SpellNumber(value) into the cell where you want to display a written number, replacing value with your number of choice.
    On your keyboard, press Enter.
    For example, if you type =SpellNumber(22.50), the cell should read Twenty-Two Dollars and Fifty Cents.

    Tip: To convert numbers to text in a separate cell, replace the numeric value with a cell reference in the SpellNumber formula. For example, type =SpellNumber(A1) to display the written value of cell A1.


    When I try it, I get a #NAME? error. I am using Excel 2016. Ideas anyone?

    I think it's a function you have to create in VBA before you can use it in your worksheet.

    Silly maybe, but I assume you have the SpellNumber macro in your workbook?
