Hello All,

Can someone please help me on a layout, I am making a layout to look like a personel check.

Please how to take the number of the total say 10.95 and turn it into text such as

ten & 95/100 or $106.30 into say

One Hundred six & $30/100 for the text line

of the dollar amount on checks.

Any help please

Thx,

Erick

Go to Brain Dunning's we site, there are a couple of custom functions to do this...

You'll need FMP Advanced to add custom functions to a file.

I just saw you're using FMP 6... might be time to upgrade.

Perhaps this ancient thing might help:

I never tested it, so I don't know how well it works.
