Dear Gurus,

FormCalc function WordNum works fine however gives the value in words with Dollar and Cent as currency symbol.

Is there a way to use this function (or any other similar function) to get the result in my desired currency (specially when a different locale cannot be used). For e.g I have a Field "txtrup" where user puts in the numerical value and the result in words is shown in a Field "txtinwords" using WordNum(txtrup,2). If for instance we put 1 in Field "txtrup" the result in Field "txtinwords" would be "one Dollar and zero cents". Now I want the result as "one Rupee and zero paisas".

How can above be achieved.

Furhter please guide how can user defined Functions be added to LifeCycle designer. If it is not too much to ask, I shall be highly grateful if a code showing JavaScript funtion for conversion of word for use in LifeCycle designer is illustrated.

Regards

Hi,

the WordNum function does not work in JavaScript, it's a FormCalc function.

You can use the function for another currency too.
But you need to use a custom script like this:
var a = MyNumericField.rawValuevar aLenght = Len(a)var aPostComma = Right(a,2)var aPreComma = Left(a, aLenght -3) aPostComma = WordNum(aPostComma)aPreComma = WordNum(aPreComma)$ = Concat(aPreComma, " Euro ", aPostComma, " Cent")
