Convert Peso Number into words in Excel

In this post, I will show you how to convert a peso number into words in Microsoft Excel. It is very useful when using a Microsoft Excel workbook template to print checks. We will guide you on how to use the SpellNumber function formula in Microsoft Excel. Thus, any amount in Peso currency allows you to convert into English words.

What is SpellNumber formula in Excel?

SpellNumber function is a formula used to convert numbers into English words in Microsoft Excel. To add this capability, you need to paste the SpellNumber function code into a VBA (Visual Basic for Applications) module and save as Excel Macro Enabled Workbook.

Here is the guide on how to create the SpellNumber function.

Creating SpellNumber function

STEP 1. Open your Microsoft Excel Workbook. In a blank cell, type the peso amount or number you want to convert. Later you have to type in a blank cell the formula =SpellNumber(D8) to get result. Where D8 is the cell location of peso number.

As sample above I have provide P150.45 then it must be turned into One Hundred Fifty Pesos & 45/100 by using the formula =SpellNumber.

STEP 2. Press Alt + F11 key, it will open the visual basic window. Click Insert tab, then Module folder under VBA Project. Copy codes below, then Paste in the blank module.

    End Select
End Function

STEP 3. Press Alt + Q to close, then save your document as Excel Macro Enabled Workbook.

STEP 4. Open your Microsoft Excel workbook again. Try using the formula =SpellNumber(Cell Reference) and press enter. For Example, =SpellNumber(D8) where D8 is the cell containing the number you want to convert. You can also type the number manually, like =SpellNumber(150.45). It should convert the Peso number to English words.
