SpellNumber UAE Dirhams is an Excel function manually through VBA Programming to change a given number in UAE Dirhams to written words. In other words, it converts a numeric value of AED into English words including Fils.
The SpellNumber macro spells the numeric value to words as the name suggests. There is no direct function in Microsoft Excel to perform the above action.
However, as many and many users demanded, Microsoft has created and published the special VBA macro code on their website for SpellNumber with Currency.
For example;
If you want to display $ 2,345.50 as “Dollar Two Thousand Three Hundred Forty-Five and Fifty Cents”, using the Microsoft function you can do that.
Whereas if you want to display AED 2,345.50 to be displayed as ” Two Thousand Three Hundred Forty-Five Dirhams and Fifty Fils ” then we need to use the SpellNumber UAE Dirham Function.
We have edited the same code with some changes for the required result. In this article, we will discuss the whole step by step process on how to create this SpellNumber UAE Dirham Function using the VBA.

NOT WORKING
You need to save the file as a macro-enabled file. The spell number is specific for the file you add. It will not work in another file unless you do add the code in the new file and save it as a macro-enabled file.
it works for me maybe you haven’t followed the
instructions properly
Dear Sir,
i followed all the steps you mentioned but there is only one problem occuring which is the currency. Dollar comes instead of “AED”. please help
Dear Basweer, Please read the ” How To Use SpellNumber UAE Dirham Function ” at the end to know how to use this function.
Yaah sir it worked 100%
Can you do a little bit more changes for me in the formula for example the current formula for numbers is:
E.g,(234.00= Two Hundred Thirty Four dirhams and no fils, or 234.75= Two Hundred Thirty Four dirhams and Seventy Five fils).
But i want to the formation of above numbers something like this:
E.g,(234.00=Two Hundred and Four Dirhams Only(removing “and no fils” with “Dirhams Only”) or 234.75=Two Hundred Thirty Four dirhams and Seventy Five Fils Only (adding “Only” after fils)
If will be your kind favour.
Thank you
Dear Sir
I can’t use this 1 more excel file
You have to insert in every new file in which you want to use.
Dear Sir,
I have followed all the steps. But when I type in the formula in the cell and press ENTER key, it tells me there is a ‘Compile Error: Syntax Error’.
Line 3 of the code is highlighted in yellow, Line 26 text color is changed to red color.
The code has been rectified and please follow the instructions given at the end of the article.
