Quer�a compartir con ustedes esta funci�n que devuelve un numero en palabras. El numero a ingresar tiene un tama�o m�ximo de 999.999.999.999.999. O sea hasta billones. Creo que deber� ser suficiente en la mayor�a de los casos.

Muy �til para la emisi�n de cheques, facturas, etc.

Ej: Importe = 123456789

En Palabras = CIENTO VEINTITRES MILLONES CUATROCIENTOS CINCUENTA Y SEIS MIL SETECIENTOS OCHENTA Y NUEVE DE PESOS CON 00/100

Espero que les sirva.
Saludos

PD: No olviden calificar este articulo. Me servir� para obtener la cuarta estrella (M�ndenme un email)

A continuaci�n sigue c�digo en Visual Basic:

Para que puedan hacer pruebas copien todo el c�digo, creen un proyecto nuevo de Windows en VB, reemplacen el c�digo generado por el que he incluido aqu� y.... a probar! Suerte!
