This article explains about how to convert a numeric value to words.

For Example: Numeric: 500
                       In Words: Five hundred Only


Write a Code:

staticclass NumberToWord
{ 
  private static string[] _ones =
   {
     "zero",
     "one",
     "two",
     "three",
     "four",
     "five",
     "six",
     "seven",
     "eight",
     "nine"
   }; 
 private static string[] _teens =
  { 
     "ten",
     "eleven",
     "twelve",
     "thirteen",
     "fourteen",
     "fifteen",
     "sixteen",
     "seventeen",
     "eighteen",
     "nineteen"
  };
 private static string[] _tens =
  {
     "",
     "ten",
     "twenty",
     "thirty",
     "forty",
     "fifty",
     "sixty",
     "seventy",
     "eighty",
     "ninety"
  };
 private static string[] _thousands =
  {
     "",
     "thousand",
     "million",
     "billion",
     "trillion",
     "quadrillion"
  };

 public static string Convert(decimal value)
  { 

    string digits, temp;
    bool showThousands = false;
    bool allZeros = true;           
    StringBuilder builder = new StringBuilder();
    digits = ((long)value).ToString(); 

    for(int i = digits.Length-1; i >= 0; i--)
    {

      int ndigit = (int)(digits[i] - '0');
      int column = (digits.Length - (i + 1));
      switch (column % 3)
      { 

  case 0:   
      
showThousands = true; 

       if (i == 0)
        
{
           temp =
String.Format("{0} ", _ones[ndigit]);
        
}
      
else if (digits[i - 1] == '1')
        
{
           temp =
String.Format("{0} ", _teens[ndigit]);
          
i--;
         }
      
else if (ndigit != 0)
       
{
          temp =
String.Format("{0} ", _ones[ndigit]);
       
}
      
else
       
{
          temp =
String.Empty;
         
if (digits[i - 1] != '0' || (i > 1 && digits[i - 2] != '0'))
         
showThousands = true;
         
else
         
showThousands = false;
       
}
      
if (showThousands)
      
{
       
if (column > 0)
       
{
         temp =
String.Format("{0}{1}{2}",
               
temp,_thousands[column / 3], allZeros ? " " : " ");
        }

        allZeros =
false;
      
}
       builder.Insert(0, temp);
      
break;

 
case 1:
        if (ndigit > 0)
        {
         temp =
String.Format("{0}{1}",_tens[ndigit],

         (digits[i + 1] != '0') ? "-" : " ");builder.Insert(0, temp);
       }
      
break;
 

case 2:
      if (ndigit > 0)
        {
         temp =
String.Format("{0} hundred ", _ones[ndigit]);
                    builder.Insert(0, temp);
       }
      
break;
     }}
   builder.AppendFormat(
"only", (value - (long)value) * 100);
   return String.Format("{0}{1}",
   Char.ToUpper(builder[0]),
   builder.ToString(1, builder.Length - 1));
  }
 

}

 

Add following code on Button_Click event

decimal number;
if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(txtAmount.Text) && decimal.TryParse(txtAmount.Text.Trim(), out number))
{
   lblAmountChar.Text = "(" + NumberToWord.Convert(number) + ")";
}
