Format Numbers into words

[IntraRELY]

Hello,

Is there a way in VB.NET to write out a number using text. Ie, 119, One
Hundred and Nine-Teen. This is very similar to how you would write a check.

TIA,

Hi,

I think you may need to do it yourself by coding.

Here is a link for VB6.

It's sometimes used when printing money transfer papers to ensure that
the amount of money entered into the field is correct.

The question was "Is there a way in VB.Net and Peter did give a very nice
link where he told there was a routine using English in VB6 (VB6 but in a
way that it is convertable in 5 minutes to VB.net, I almost did it).

You are right -- it would be nice to have a spelling in more than one
language to make the application language-independent.

Hi,

For different languages issue, you may try to use resource DLLs for
internationalization.

As Herfried said, I think you may try to write a few resouce dll for
Internationalization to make the application independent of languages
