    Hi Sean,

    take a look at the number settings:

    ...and more common for plural is Euros.

     

    Screenshots are from Mac app version of Ninox.

    Nick, thanks for the screenshots. When I saw the system settings screenshot, I wanted to facepalm! It is a simple fix on these 2 lines:

     

    if contains(text(numAmount), ".") then
    let dpIndex := index(text(numAmount), ".");

     

    If you change "." to "," it should work correctly. I did change the system settings on my Mac and it tested correctly. The decimal separator just needs to be unique for the code to work as it is written.

    This is the complete formula. It checks for single and plural amounts and adds "and no cents" if there isn't any change. I'll post the same formula without the "and no cents" after this.

    if floor(num) > 19 then
    item(y, floor(num / 10)) + item(x, mod(num, 10)) + suffix

    Nick, you're welcome. There is another simple change that can expand it's usefulness if you use multiple currencies. Create a table for currencies like this:

    Create a link in any tables where you would want to use the formula and change the code like this.

    Thank you very much Sean for this code that works very well.

    But in French, it is just a bit different :

    - You don't say "One Hundred" but you say "hundred", but you say "Two Hundred", "Three Hundred"...

    - it is the same for "One Thousand" that you say "Thousand", but it's OK for "One Million" or "One Billion"

    - the most difficult, in french, is "Seventy", that you say as "Sixty-Ten", "Seventy One" that you say "Sixty Elven"... "Eighty" is ok, but you say "Ninety"  as "Eighty-ten", and "Ninety Nine" as "Ninety-Nineteen".

    I'm sorry to speack french, but do you think you can find a way to solve those problems ?

    Regards

    I assume you meant "Eighty-Nineteen" for "Ninety Nine". I found this, http://www.frenchtutorial.com/en/learn-french/counting/70-99, is it what you want?

     

    It will take me a while to make the time to wrap my head around it.

    Wow. French counting is crazy.

    Eighty in French is quatre-vingts. 

    quatre-vingts In English is four-twentys 

    Eighty one is quatre-vingt-un

    80 blaze it

    Well, I absolutely needed it in french, so I fiddled this formula (if anyone wants to simplify it, welcome !). Problems of french spelling mistakes are normally ok,I think,because french is really hard with spelling numbers.

    Olivier, well done. The only thing I would do differently is use the user-defined function and you can deleted the "void;". Glad you got it working. :)

    Hi Sean, I'm sorry but I'm afraid I don't understand what you mean with the user-defined function. I don't understant why "void" automatically appears.

    • Sean

    Hi Olivier, In my code there is a user-defined function named numberToWord. By using a function, you can reduce repeated code, but the important thing here is you've got it working. I was able to delete "void" and it didn't reappear so my *guess* is there is a variable declared in your code that isn't used so "void" is inserted.

    OK, thank you Sean.

    I create a user-defined function, it's really easier too use in the DB.
