    In Word, you can format numbers in a field as Roman.

    For example:

    1. Press Ctrl+F9 to insert field brackets { }
    2. Type   =2014 \ ROMAN*
    3. Press F9 to hide the field code and update the result.

    Or use a macro, as described in http://msgroups.net/microsoft.public.word.newusers/how-do-i-insert-roman-numerals/70297

    Excel has a worksheet function ROMAN.

    For example:

    1. Enter a number in a cell, say in A1.
    2. In another cell, enter the formula    =ROMAN(A1)

    As a general rule, roman numerals in Word are entered just by typing the component parts: I, V, X, L, C, D, M, etc. (caps or lowercase). But some fonts do have a range of "built-up" roman numerals. Find these at U2160-U2182 in the Number Forms character subset. Even if the font you are currently using does not contain these characters, you can type one of the Unicode numbers and press Alt+X. The character will be inserted in MS Mincho (serif) or MS Gothic (sans serif). If you have Arial Unicode MS installed, you can select it in Word's Symbol dialog and select those characters manually.

    The methods I mentioned should work in Word 2013 and Excel 2013.
