FT_NTOW() Translate numeric value to words Syntax FT_NTOW( <nNumber> ) -> cWords Arguments <nNumber> An integer to translate Returns A text string representing <nNumber> Description Translates numeric input to a text string. FT_NTOW is intended to be used with integers only. Since I don't know what your application will be, I can't assume the type of fraction you want returned (ninety nine cents, 99/100, .99, etc). If you want the fraction in words, just pass it as an integer. Do not pass a negative number! Handle negative numbers any way you need to in your code. (ie: CR, DB, Negative, Minus, etc.) Also, numeric 0 is returned as a null string. You will need to make a decision how to output it (zero dollars, no dollars, etc). Examples ? FT_NTOW( 999 ) -> Nine Hundred Ninety Nine ? FT_NTOW( 1000 ) -> One Thousand ? FT_NTOW( 23 ) + " Dollars and " + FT_NTOW( 99 ) + " Cents" -> Twenty Three Dollars and Ninety Nine Cents ? FT_NTOW( 23 ) + " Dollars and " + "99/100" -> Twenty Three Dollars and 99/100 x := -23.99 cents := str( (x - int( x )) * 100, 2, 0 ) + "/100" x := int( x ) string := iif( x < 0, "Credit of ", "Debit of " ) ? string + FT_NTOW( abs(x) ) + " Dollars and " + "99/100" -> Credit of Twenty Three Dollars and 99/100 Source: NTOW.PRG Author: Gary Baren
