This can be used all by itself without the necessity of any other functions.
Converts Currency into Text which can be very useful if printing paychecks or for paying bills

This custom function is very hard to read with no ¶s or white spaces. I am also wondering why nested "If" statements were used vs. using nested "Case" statements?
