1.       Use the keyboard shortcut, Alt + F11 to open the Visual Basic Editor (VBE).

2.       Click the Insert tab, and click Module.

3.       Copy the following lines of code.

End Function

 

4.       Paste the lines of code into the Module1 (Code) box.

5.       Press Alt + Q to return to Excel. The AED function is now ready to use.

 Use the AED function in individual cells

1.       Type the formula =AED(A1) into the cell where you want to display a written number, where A1 is the cell containing the number you want to convert. You can also manually type the value like =AED(22.50).

2.       Press Enter to confirm the formula.

Save your AED function workbook

Excel cannot save a workbook with macro functions in the standard macro-free workbook format (.xlsx). If you click File > Save. A VB project dialog box opens. Click No.

You can save your file as an Excel Macro-Enabled Workbook (.xlsm) to keep your file in its current format.
