Hey Lovely People,

I have been searching endlessly on Airtable community for a formula that helps convert numbers into texts (such as 1,555 into one thousand, five hundred and fifty five).

There were some extremely complicated formulas that simply didn’t work the way they should and there are no scripts. I wish I was a developer to do one. Is there someone out there interested in helping creating such a script? Please note that I need them more than 9,999 (meaning I have some numbers in millions as well).

Best,
Hady
