Trying to avoid re-inventing the wheel if it can be avoided. Is there some special way I have yet to find I can use to convert a currency formatted decimal into the text equivalent?

Best example, when you sign a check and say you put $1,234.56 (StringFormat C) can I grab that value and convert it to "One Thousand Two Hundred Thirty Four & Fifty Six Cents" for checks?

I've looked around and not found anything, was really hoping to not waste a bunch of time if it can be avoided. Cheers
