Search this messageboard for 'eleventh' and'twelveth', there is a nice switch statement to deal with that, the rest will be easy.

No need. I'm working on it, and I'll post the code when I'm finished. Already half the way.

Hello friend. Here is your code. I hope you like it;). It consists of 3 methods. You call the ToLiteral() method and supply it with the string you want to parse. It will subsequently call the other two methods to retreive the literals and the segments names. Forgive me for the poor comment -never been good in commenting-. I included a button click even handler to show you how to test for output and how to use the ToLiteral() method.

private void TestButton\_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        //Random numbers in a MessageBox to test output
        MessageBox.Show("4\\n" + ToLiterals("4"));
        MessageBox.Show("57\\n" + ToLiterals("57"));
        MessageBox.Show("209\\n" + ToLiterals("209"));
        MessageBox.Show("8734\\n" + ToLiterals("8734"));
        MessageBox.Show("24567\\n" + ToLiterals("24567"));
        MessageBox.Show("973654\\n" + ToLiterals("973654"));
        MessageBox.Show("2315736\\n" + ToLiterals("2315736"));
        MessageBox.Show("27065154\\n" + ToLiterals("27065154"));
        MessageBox.Show("827464876\\n" + ToLiterals("827464876"));
        MessageBox.Show("1675376283\\n" + ToLiterals("1675376283"));       
    }

    private string ToLiterals(string Input)
    {
        String Output = "";
        while (Input.Length > 0)
        {
            if (Input\[0\] == '0')//Ignore zeros
            {
                Input = Input.Remove(0, 1);
                Output += "And ";
                continue;
            }
            if (Input.Length % 3 != 2)
            {
                // We are at the Xs if our number is XYX,XYX,XYX
                // Either first, or third position in each segment.
                Output += ConvertChar(Input\[0\].ToString());
                if (Input.Length % 3 == 0 && Input.Length > 2) //third position in a segment
                    Output += "Hundred ";
                else
                    Output += GetSegment(Input.Length / 3); //first position
                    Input = Input.Remove(0, 1);
                continue;
            }
            else
            {
                //We are talking about first and second positions togerther :YXX,YXX,YXX
                if (Input\[0\] == '1') //Is it Xteen? ie. 11-19
                {
                    Output += ConvertChar(Input.Substring(0, 2));

Well a switch is a manual and less elegant way of doing this. A preferred way is having all the digit equivalents in a string table, and then having the conjuntion operators in another one, and a mapping list for mapping the info. I will try to post some code on it, using the neural approach that i did 6 years back.

Thanks friend, Your code is so logical and it took my two hrs. for understanding it. How your made the logic in just 35 min. You are a true programmer. The code meet all my requirements and I'll use it in my Data Base program "as it is" without any changing. So thanks and so nice of you. God Bless You "If u read this plz send me your e-mail address." Bye
