This trick is rather limited, as it runs out of steam at amounts
somewhat greater than my salary.
Best go to asktom.oracle.com for this, I recall seeing a
rather good one there that had much higher limits.

I got this off of metalink:
select to_char( to_date( &&1, 'J' ), 'jsp' ) from dual;
SQL> select to_char( to_date( 123,'J'), 'jsp') from dual;
TO_CHAR(TO_DATE(123,'J')
----------------------------------
one hundred twenty-three
SQL> select to_char( to_date( 123,'J'), 'Jsp') from dual;
TO_CHAR(TO_DATE(123,'J')
----------------------------------
One Hundred Twenty-Three
SQL> select to_char( to_date( 123,'J'), 'JSP') from dual;
TO_CHAR(TO_DATE(123,'J')
----------------------------------
ONE HUNDRED TWENTY-THREE
I suspect there is an upper limit imposed by some integer conversion or julian date thingy...
