CONVERT FIGURES(NUMBER) IN TO WORD EXCEL ADD IN INDIAN RUPEE
What we needed was to show a number in the Indian Rupee format as well as display the amount in words. Let me explain. Say we have a figure 12345678. If I just use the currency format it will be displayed as Rs 12,345,678.00. But in India we prefer to use the format Rs. 1,23,45,678.00. That is we use hundreds, thousands, lakhs and crores rather than millions and billions. As far as I know there is no built in method to display it in the Indian format. (I haven’t tried Office 2007 yet.). Before I developed this Add-In we had to do it manually each time up to 50 times a day. This Add-In saved us a lot of time.
The Add-In has 3 functions – INR(), REVINR() and RSWORDS().
The INR() function converts a number to the Indian Style Comma formatted currency as you can see in the snapshot. The commas are placed in the right places separating lakhs and crores. But the result that you get is in the Text Format. So you cannot directly use the result in a formula for calculations. To overcome this issue I have added another function calledREVINR().
The REVINR() function simply converts the result obtained from using INR function back to the number format so that you can use it in calculations as demonstrated in snapshot.
