Hi

There is an extension for Calc that you can download called Numbertext 0.9.1 from

http://extensions.services.openoffice.org/en/node/4063

For instance, it will convert 1234.5 in A1 to "one thousand two hundred and thirty-four point five" (with the formula (=NUMBERTEXT(A1,"en-US") so you will have to do a bit of manipulation to get the cents the way you want them.

Full Formula

=CONCATENATE(UPPER(NUMBERTEXT(INT(A1)))," AND ",TEXT((A1-INT(A1))*100,"##"),"/100")

Can you help with this problem?
