Hi all,
try this example to use SQL Function to Convert Number to Character
--create the following function
CREATE FUNCTION dbo.Convert_Num_ToWords
(
@Number Numeric (38, 0) -- Input number with as many as 18 digits
) RETURNS VARCHAR(8000)
/*
* Converts a integer number as large as 34 digits into the
* equivalent words. The first letter is capitalized.
*
* Attribution: Based on NumberToWords by Srinivas Sampath
* as revised by Nick Barclay
*
* Example:
select dbo.udf_Num_ToWords (1234567890) + CHAR(10)
+ dbo.udf_Num_ToWords (0) + CHAR(10)
+ dbo.udf_Num_ToWords (123) + CHAR(10)
select dbo.udf_Num_ToWords(76543210987654321098765432109876543210)
DECLARE @i numeric (38,0)
SET @i = 0
WHILE @I <= 1000 BEGIN
PRINT convert (char(5), @i)
+ convert(varchar(255), dbo.udf_Num_ToWords(@i))
SET @I = @i + 1
END

Now to use this Function
select dbo.Convert_Num_ToWords(5800000)
Hope this helps
Good Luck
