run in a schema ,let say HR
create or replace
function spell_number( p_number in number )
return varchar2
as
type myArray is table of varchar2(255);
l_str myArray := myArray( '',
' thousand ', ' million ',
' billion ', ' trillion ',
' quadrillion ', ' quintillion ',
' sextillion ', ' septillion ',
' octillion ', ' nonillion ',
' decillion ', ' undecillion ',
' duodecillion ' );
l_num varchar2(50) default trunc( p_number );
l_return varchar2(4000);
begin
for i in 1 .. l_str.count
loop
exit when l_num is null;
if ( substr(l_num, length(l_num)-2, 3) <> 0 )
then
l_return := to_char(
to_date(
substr(l_num, length(l_num)-2, 3),
'J' ),
'Jsp' ) || l_str(i) || l_return;
end if;
l_num := substr( l_num, 1, length(l_num)-3 );
end loop;
return l_return;
end;
/

and then check this

select spell_number(5367) from dual;

and in report use

return(spell_num(:v_num));
