To call it i'm using
DECLARE @Number DECIMAL(18, 2) = 1004
SELECT dbo.NumberToWords(@Number) AS Words
CASE ERRORS:
- 20 ✅ Twenty
- 100 ✅ One Hundred
- 101 ❌ NULL
- 102 ❌ NULL
- 105 ❌ NULL
- 200 ✅ Two hundred
- 204 ❌ NULL
- 1000 ✅ One Thousand
- 1004 ✅ One Thousand Four
- 1005 ❌ NULL
- 1020 ❌ NULL
I thought it was because it couldn't recurse more than one time but it handles One Thousand Four no problems.
