Default Cardinal Text and Decimals

Is there a way to make field result "10.125%" read "ten and 1/8"?

{ = { REF LegalInterestRate }*100 \*cardtext} yields, "ten"
{ = { REF LegalInterestRate }*100 \*dollartext} yields, "ten and 13/100"

Stumped.

If your merge data source is Excel (which from the use of REF fields is
probably not the case) you could format as fraction in Excel and attach the
data file as DDE to bring over the formatting from the cell.
