It has a function named "numtext" that does what you want.

There are sever macros around that do something similar to the ref below...this can be found on ASAP utilities (Freebe)...maybe you can modify that one to fit you needs....

Here is another way I found a few days ago.
Just insert this code into a standard module.

Function NumberChange(dblNum As Double, Optional bolArt As Variant)
Dim arrArt As Variant
Dim intCounter As Integer, intCts As Integer
Dim strValue As String, strTmp As String, strSuffix As String
On Error Resume Next
If bolArt = 1 Then
If Err = 0 Then
intCts = (dblNum - Fix(dblNum)) * 100
strSuffix = " " & Format(CStr(intCts), " 00") & "/100"
Else
bolArt = 0
End If
End If
On Error GoTo 0
dblNum = Fix(dblNum)
strTmp = Right(CStr(dblNum), 3)
strValue = Part(strTmp)
For intCounter = 1 To 4
strTmp = CStr(dblNum)
Select Case Len(strTmp)
Case Is < 1 + 3 * intCounter
NumberChange = strValue & strSuffix
Exit Function
Case Is < 4 + 3 * intCounter
strTmp = Left(strTmp, Len(strTmp) - intCounter * 3)
Case Else
strTmp = Left(Right(strTmp, 3 + intCounter * 3), 3)
End Select
Select Case intCounter
Case 1: arrArt = Array(" Thousand", " One Thousand")
Case 2: arrArt = Array(" Million", " One Million")
Case 3: arrArt = Array(" Billion", " One Billion")
Case 4: arrArt = Array(" Trillion", " One Trillion")
End Select
If Right(CStr(dblNum), 3) = "000" Then
strValue = Part(strTmp) & arrArt(0)
ElseIf CInt(strTmp) = 1 Then
strValue = arrArt(1) & strValue
Else
strValue = Part(strTmp) & arrArt(0) & strValue
End If
Next intCounter
NumberChange = strValue & strSuffix
End Function

Private Function Part(strPart As String) As String
Dim arrA As Variant, arrB As Variant, arrC As Variant
Dim strTmp As String
arrA = Array("Zero", " One", " Two", " Three", " Four", " Five", " Six", " Seven", " Eight", " Nine")
arrB = Array(" Eleven", " Twelve", " Thirteen", " Fourteen", " Fifteen", " Sixteen", " Seventeen", " Eighteen", " Nineteen")
arrC = Array(" Ten", " Twenty", " Thirty", " Forty", " Fifty", " Sixty", " Seventy", " Eighty", " Ninety")
If Len(strPart) = 1 Then
strTmp = arrA(CInt(Right(strPart, 1)))
ElseIf Right(strPart, 2) = "00" Then
If Left(strPart, 1) = "1" Then
Part = " One Hundred"
Else
Part = arrC(CInt(Left(strPart, 1))) & " Hundred"
End If
Exit Function
ElseIf Mid(strPart, Len(strPart) - 1, 1) = "0" Then
strTmp = arrA(CInt(Right(strPart, 1)))
ElseIf Mid(strPart, Len(strPart) - 1, 1) = "1" Then
If CInt(Right(strPart, 1)) <> 0 Then
strTmp = arrB(CInt(Right(strPart, 2)) - 11)
Else
strTmp = arrC(CInt(Mid(strPart, Len(strPart) - 1, 1)) - 1)
End If
ElseIf CInt(Mid(strPart, Len(strPart) - 1, 1)) > 1 Then
Select Case Right(strPart, 1)
Case "0"
strTmp = arrC(CInt(Mid(strPart, Len(strPart) - 1, 1)) - 1)
Case "1"
strTmp = "One And" & _
arrC(CInt(Mid(strPart, Len(strPart) - 1, 1)) - 1)
Case Else
strTmp = arrC(CInt(Mid(strPart, Len(strPart) - 1, 1)) - 1) & _
arrA(CInt(Right(strPart, 1))) & ""

End Select
End If
If Len(strPart) = 3 Then
Select Case Left(strPart, 1)
Case "0"
Case "1"
strTmp = " One Hundred" & strTmp
Case Else
strTmp = arrA(CInt(Left(strPart, 1))) & " Hundred" & strTmp
End Select
End If
Part = strTmp
End Function
