Hi ,
Thanks for reply, it's a solution for me. But i wanna ask you if you know how to achieve this:
select spell_number(123.12) from dual;result: one hundred twenty-threeexpected output: one hundred twenty-three point twelvethis is the function:create or replace function spell_number( p_number in number)
return varchar2
as
  type myArray is table of varchar2(255);
  l_str  myArray := myArray ('',
                            ' thousand ', ' million ', ' billion ', ' trillion ',
                            ' quadrillion ', ' quintillion ', ' sextillion ',
                            ' septillion ', ' octillion ', ' nonillion ', ' decillion ',
                            ' undecillion ', 'duodecillion ');
  l_num varchar2(50) default trunc( p_number );
  l_return varchar2(4000);
begin
  for i in 1..l_str.count
  loop
    exit when l_num is null;
    if ( substr(l_num, length(l_num)-2, 3) <>0 )
    then
      l_return := to_char(to_date(substr(l_num, length(l_num)-2, 3), 'J'), 'JSP') ||
                  l_str(i) || l_return;
    end if;
    l_num := substr( l_num, 1, length(l_num)-3 );
  end loop;
  return lower(l_return);
end;Thanks in advance,
