I HAVE COME ACROSS AT LEAST A COUPLE OF EXCEL ADDINS WHICH CONVERT NUMERALS TO WORDS FOR EXAMPLE IF YOU ENTER 1,12,12,212 IN CELL A1, CELL B1 WILL CONVERT THE NUMERALS TO WORDS IN THIS CASE : RUPEES ONE CRORE TWELVE LAKH TWELVE THOUSAND TWO HUNDRED AND TWELVE ONLY. I AM IN SEARCH OF A SIMILAR ADDIN WHICH SHOULD CONVERT THE NUMERALS TO HINDI WORDS LIKE IN THE INSTANT EXAMPLE TO रुपये एक करोड़ बारह लाख बारह हज़ार दो सौ बारह मात्र. I HAVE BEEN IN SEARCH OF SUCH AN ADDIN FOR ALMOST A YEAR BY NOW BUT TO NO AVAIL. SINCE I HAVE A VERY BASIC KNOWLEDGE OF EXCEL, I AM UNABLE TO DO IT MYSELF. WILL SOMEBODY HELP ME? I HAVE THE CODE IN ENGLISH AND CAN SEND THE FILE BY MAIL TO THE PERSON INTERESTED. THANKS

Hi Abid,
I did not get what you meant by “Language” change in worksheet. Below are what I guess your problem might be.

If you are working in a language that rights right-to-left that used to be your default and now the excel is starting up with layout left-to-right… slect on menu bar Tools –> Options –> International tab –> and under fram right-to-left select appropriate option and OK…

If its related to default font on worksheet then there is option under “General” Tab

If there is some other problem, then it needs to be detailed.

Hi Phil! I did not carefully read your comment…

About mirroring the form… there is no straight forward way… If you need to make such implementation it would be better if you use a form with “borderstyle” property set to 0 (None) and then manually clone the buttons.. Then these buttons will also mirror as shown in post Mirroring Form for RTL Languages as Arabic
