Creating Multiple Technical Sanction Orders in Few seconds

Multiple Technical Sanction Orders in a Single Click

Giving Technical Sanctions to various works is a day-to-day job for Division, Circle, and Regional level offices.

One important point to note is that works usually come in lists (Budget, Supplementary Budget, etc.), so we typically have a ready list of works.

When the works list is already categorized and the scope of work is almost similar, it becomes quite easy to generate multiple Technical Sanction (TS) orders using:

1. Mail Merge function in Microsoft Word
2. Excel with a Marathi Number-to-Word converter for the entire list

This is achieved using a VBA macro. Copy and paste the following code into the VBA Editor (Developer tab → Visual Basic), and the user-defined function CnvToMarathi will appear in the Excel formula bar.

Function CnvToMarathi(ByVal MyNumber)
    Dim temp
    Dim Rupees, Cents
    Dim DecimalPlace, Count

    ReDim Place(9) As String
    Place(1) = " " & ChrW(&H939) & ChrW(&H91C) & ChrW(&H93E) & ChrW(&H930) & " "   ' एकर
    Place(2) = " " & ChrW(&H932) & ChrW(&H93E) & ChrW(&H916) & " "             ' लाख
    Place(3) = " " & ChrW(&H915) & ChrW(&H94B) & ChrW(&H91F) & ChrW(&H940) & " "   ' कोटी
    Place(4) = " " & ChrW(&H905) & ChrW(&H92C) & ChrW(&H94D) & ChrW(&H91C) & " "   ' अब्ज
    Place(5) = " " & ChrW(&H916) & ChrW(&H930) & ChrW(&H92C) & ""                ' खरब

    MyNumber = Trim(Str(MyNumber))

    DecimalPlace = InStr(MyNumber, ".")
    If DecimalPlace > 0 Then
        temp = Left(Mid(MyNumber, DecimalPlace + 1) & "00", 2)
        Cents = ConvertDigit(temp)
        MyNumber = Trim(Left(MyNumber, DecimalPlace - 1))
    End If

    Count = 1
    Do While MyNumber <> ""
        temp = ConvertHundreds(Right(MyNumber, 3))
        If temp <> "" Then Rupees = temp & Place(Count) & Rupees
        If Len(MyNumber) > 3 Then
            MyNumber = Left(MyNumber, Len(MyNumber) - 3)
        Else
            MyNumber = ""
        End If
        Count = Count + 1
    Loop

    Select Case Rupees
        Case "": Rupees = "शून्य रुपये"
        Case "One": Rupees = "एक रुपये"
        Case Else: Rupees = Rupees & " रुपये"
    End Select

    Select Case Cents
        Case "": Cents = ""
        Case Else: Cents = " आणि " & Cents & " पैशे"
    End Select

    CnvToMarathi = "फक्त " & Rupees & Cents
End Function
